Unique Restoration of Hand Cranked Grinder

This Rare Grinder has been sat in my shed for the past two years waiting for its moment in the spotlight, I have walked past it many times but I have always been put off by the weld repairs which needed doing, I have very little experience welding any metal let alone cast.
I finally decided to take the plunge and see how it would turn out, It has taken approx 6 weeks to complete from start to finish and Im sure you will agree it cleaned up very nicely and now has a new lease of life.
I have tried to use some different techniques this time such as making my own screws and rebuilding missing parts with Weld material, This was an enjoyable part of this Unique Restoration process as I had never done this before. However it does need a little more work which hopefully will improve in my next video. I would like to ask you at this point if you have any information to share regarding this Rare Grinder, I have searched the internet but cannot seem to find many photos or much about the company which made it. The Description on the name plate is Flam De'posee. I hope you enjoyed this short video and I would appreciate it if you could leave a like and a comment
