Video Description

In this video I will be restoring a toaster that's 111 years old, that's right as old as Bilbo Baggins, coincidence? I don't think so. Anyways, The toaster is rusty banged up but incredibly it still works. I will replace the heating element because it's damaged and might possibly have asbestos like, many old things that are fire/heat resistant. I want the heating element to be in good condition because the whole body is made of metal and it doesn't even have on/off switch and overall it's rather dangerous design by modern standards. It's very important the high voltage doesn't get to the ungrounded body. The following links are affiliate links. By clicking them you are directed to a amazon (or other) product page.
