In this restoration video, you will see me restoring a mini chaff cutter machine. The machine is antique and rusty, and I decided to restore it because of its unique design. I never saw one the same, did you?
The machine is made of heavy cast iron with tin parts. I tried to keep an antique look and preserve some of the marks of time that are working to prove its age/authenticity. I removed only the prominent casting marks and rust pits. Such machines can be found in a meager number, so they deserve to be rescued and preserved even if they will no longer serve as household tools but as items to be displayed. The restoration process took me almost two weeks.
What is a chaff cutter machine?
A chaff cutter is a mechanical device for cutting straw or hay into small pieces before mixing it with other forage and feeding it to horses and cattle.
I hope I have caught everything, but if you have any questions about the restoration process, you can comment, and I'll get back to you! Cheers! Johnny.
