100 Year Old Scale Restoration from England

In this video I am restoring an old, antique scale from Salter's Family Scale.. I found the model's name of this scale on a very rusty and crusty brass plate. It's No.50. It can measure up to 14 lb. The scale functioned but not accurate, and I thought the built-in spring might be the problem. It was made in Britain around 1900-1910. I could buy this from eBay. I think I bought it for around $70. Also, the original scale must have a tray. During the restoration work, I found out that the tray was missing. Making the trays was a challenge for me. At first it wasn't wood, I tried with aluminum. It was my first time doing plate banding and it was risky. So, I tried hammering with a round jig, but the result was not good. Had to hammer thousands of times. It was a good try for me. In the end, I chose solid wood, and the result is very satisfying. It gave the scale a more antique feel. The main color is dark green. There are 3 colors in total. The shaft has chosen yellow as a point. I hope this video will give you pleasure. Thanks for watching the video.
