Hedge Shears - Restoration

In this video I am restoring very rusty hedge shears.

As you can see these shears are in really bad shape from what I presume is years of exposure to the elements. They suffered from complete rusting and very heavy metal pitting but I knew they still had life left in them!

A few things I have never done before were needed for this restoration, such as making new handles and trying to achieve a mirror polish on steel. I went through a mountain of sandpaper to get a smooth finish on the metal.

Thanks for watching :)
