This restoration is not a normal one, because I am restoring a very rusty hammer, just like "Awesome Restorations" did. But I do not do this with laser, hardening furnace or other high-tech, but with very simple methods that almost every hobbyist has at home. For example, I etching metal, but as mentioned with very simple means.
I had a lot of fun filming this restoration video, because I learned and applied new techniques, and in video editing I tried new things to get very close to the video of Awesome Restorations. By the way, I am a very big fan of Martin's videos, so I send him my best regards!

▬ What did I do ?! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

This hammer is really rusty! Therefore, in the first step I blast this with slag. Then I grind the hammer faces and the sides with different types of sandpaper. With a propane burner I heat the old rusty hammer to about 800°C (Tip: Since salt melts at 800°C, just sprinkle it on top) and the oil to about 80°C. After hardening, including burnishing, I prepare the large surfaces on the sides. From adhesive foil I cut my desired pattern and now etch the surface of the old hammer, the result is amazing - and that with household products. Installing the handle is just a piece of cake. But take a look for yourself! The result is "Awesome"!
