Hi everyone, I am new here,

My passion is tinkering, I saw this forum had a restoration catergory. I wanted to share with you a restoration of an old hatchet head. I reworked it totally, from the handle to the head curves. I made a video where I show all of the techniques I used. If you want to see it:
YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsUl3S66lCpnixUZvYV9jMZYjWjgdc3-o)

Tell me what you think about it. I love gathering peoples advices.

Thanks
Nolan

Well......
Firstly, the finished product looks OK.
But it is definitely not a restoration, not in my view. Maybe a 'reconstruction' would be a better description.
Also, better lighting would help, and 1 part not 3.

Just my view...

Another piece of history destroyed.
