    • Lmao @ the testing gear!!! Also, I thought the Damascus was achieved by layering the metals, then forging them together... Like on Forged in Fire.🙈

  • That is probably the prettiest daisy I have ever seen. Restored a few older ones from my Dad. You do things like this not for money, but the sentiment of the artifact and to learn as you go. VERY well done.

  • Very nice! I plan to watch this with my Father! While as a youngin' I had a .22 rifle before I had a BB gun and when I finally purchased one it was actually .20 cal Benjamin Sheridan Pellet rifle but I remember two of these Daisy's hanging in the open ceiling of our basement that were my fathers as a child. I think next time he visits I'll tell him to bring those with him, then show him this and tell him we're going to restore his. Thank you!

Great videos of wood working, I particularly enjoy the creativity. I’ve enjoyed many videos including the mammoth tusk. Keep up the good work and “don’t shoot your eye out”.

Is my go-to also for mild steel railings, can't beat it in my humble opinion! BB gun looks terrific and is worth way more than it was in so many ways ;)

  • Safety first! I just ordered the Daisy Red Ryder BB gun today for 90€ 😂 I'm planing to replace the wood stock with a mahogany stock my father made, from an old window/door frame, around 35 years ago for us to play with. Just the bare wood stock and imagination was enough back then 😂. I kept it all the years and I will surprise him after I've finished the modifications. Thanks for this inspiring video! And all your other content as well, I think I nearly watched all your videos. Greetings from Germany

  • I love how you put safety first in your videos. I’m impressed. I think there are some parallels to our approach to carpentry. I’m a union carpenter out of Portland and I am a little quirky about my tools. I’ll spend extra time making or modifying a tool to make it perfect for me. Nobody seems to appreciate it like I do until they need it and they stop giving me a hard time till they give it back. It’s funny.

  • SAFETY FIRST You have inspired me to start restoration on the two similar Daisy BB guns I have. One was my Grandfather's and the other was my Dad's and I shot both when I was a child in the 1960s. I really don't know when they were made/purchased but they both are at least pre-1965! Both have been in my basement since 1985 and have a good layer of surface rust. THANKS for re-posting this video! SAFETY FIRST
