Ancestor Fridge Restoration - This Ice Box Was Hidden for 100 Years!

Video Description

In this video, I restore a beautiful antique wooden fridge (Ice Box) found in a historical abandoned building. More about the restoration process: It was very challenging but rewarding, as usual, and I learned a lot about these types of ancient wooden fridges! In the past, I restored a similar one, but smaller and with some differences. The ice box was in disrepair when I got it. The ice container was damaged and dirty and couldn't be used anymore; it had a considerable layer of zinc corrosion that required a lot of patience to remove, as well as many dents and the top lid was as well very corroded. The back margin was water-damaged and required full replacement, so I had to rebuild it from scratch. If you want to learn more about this antique fridge, I encourage you to watch this video. When I saw it, even though I was shocked at how bad it looked, full of dents, bends, rust, and white corrosion! After removing the old paint, the parts were treated and stained, and waxed to get an antique look. At the end of the video, I made a test so you can see how it works! I hope I have caught everything, but if you have any questions, you can comment, and I'll get back to you! Cheers! Johnny.
