Antique Bird-Luring Mirror Restoration

In this video, I bring back to life an old hunting decoy used to attract birds — known in French as a “miroir aux alouettes.” The mechanism was rusty and blocked, the mirrors were broken, and some parts were missing… but after a full restoration, it looks (and works) like new again! Steps you’ll see in this restoration: Cleaning and repairing the mechanism Replacing broken mirrors Cold-bluing and repainting the metal parts Wood treatment and staining Final reassembly and test If you enjoy satisfying restoration videos, don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to help me reach 500k subscribers !
