I’ve been a painter for over 35 yrs, the work you did to that door just to paint over it again was incredible, wonderful to see someone taking there time to do it right, pleasure to see your work again on you tube.
Tha kyou!
@@johnsfurniturerepair Trena, another beautiful job! As the daughter of a professional painter I appreciate your thoroughness. A good paint job isnt possible without a complete prep job. Great work. 👍
Greetings from Detroit, A job well done….. I have to restore three French Doors and paint those also. Learned a lot, Thanks so much!!!
Oh ya stunning girl! Most excellent job! AS ALWAYS! KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK!
True artistry.
Thank you
Your tenacity to close the panel gapes without replacing the moldings is truly admirable. I'm a trim carpenter and have restored a half dozen old raised panel doors. I've always told the customer that I can't guarantee saving the old moldings. In most cases I replaced with new. Having all the milling equip it's faster for me to replace than coax movement back into the panel like you did. Good show girl,, you have so much more patient than I. Love your work. Your scope of experience and range of skill is breath taking. Your up there with the Thomas Johnson's of the restoration world.
Thankyou Paul!
I watch Thomas Johnson also.!
@@melissataylor5494 As Thomas winds down his career it's great to know that there are younger finishers at Trina's level keeping the craft alive. What's so impressive to me about her is her depth of knowledge in particular her skills matching color and finish. This just take thousands of hours at the bench there really aren't any short cuts.
Love a bit of Trena and her skills.
My favorite part is watching you do all the repairs. Sometimes you have to get pretty creative. I like both painted and natural wood. It all depends on the wood and the application. Which ever is more appropriate. It’s all good! Beautiful door! 👍🏼
There is something sublimely joyous about watching a Master at their craft. Thanks Trena, for sharing with us.
The chisel work was great. The paint finish was amazing. But the panels being slid back into place was exquisitely satisfying. Loved it. The Before/After segment was good too
You had no choice, that door had to be painted. Looks beautiful.
Wonderful job on that door! I'm grateful that you share your work in so much detail. It's a privilege to see the skill and the effort you put into achieving an end result of such quality.
Thanks!
I was wondering when you would be moving back to your Dads studio and you answered my question straight off by announcing this would be your last work in Windsor. All the best for your future endeavors. I think you worked a miracle on that door.
well, actually just my last door, there are a few more projects to come from this shop. ill let you know when its the last one. cheers
That stripper on the white paint reminds me of a relief map of snowy mountains. The customer wanted the door painted. That's fine. You did and amazing job! I think it turned out fantastic and the customer should be very pleased.
And this throwaway world we live in these days it would have been so much easier to discard that door and replace it with something new and modern. I'm so thankful that there are people like you who are willing still to put in the work and appreciate the character of old pieces like this.
You are just a master at making something look the best it can be. I am very sure your local customers are so sad to see you leave. Thank you so much in letting us travel along with you. Thanks Michael
thanks to you
Ur name definitely is not john@@johnsfurniturerepair
Wow! Lovely, lovely, lovely! I truly love old worn and flawed pine doors and cabinetry with the natural marks and wear of age. However, I think that you gave this limping repurposed door more life than it could have had any other way. Wonderful work! Thank you for sharing!
Thankyou Jerry!
Just beautiful
I'm thankful for your time and effort to post these videos. You tackle such a wide spectrum of projects with so much know-how. I'm always amazed with your creativity and problem solving skills, and I learn new things as I watch each video. I'm so glad and grateful for your channel. Cheers! 😎👍🏻🥂
Thankyou so much!
Fearless, ingenious and knowledgeable and more! That’s who you are ❤
Another beautiful save....nice job!!!
What an absolutely beautiful transformation!
Once again I'm totally amazed!
creepy old door sounds ASMR!
amazing work, really enjoyed this!
Just Wow😮
It came out great
Amazing restoration job I never thought it would come out as nice as this, your father has taught you an amazing skill I bet he is so proud of you.
It's a much happier door without all those layers of paint. You have a lot going on, sending you positive vibes. Take care.
yes thankyou!
I continue to be impressed by your skill and attention to detail. I would have replaced that door, but you made it look better than new. Thanks for the video.
You always go above and beyond!An excellent job! X
I was born and raised in Windsor but moved up to Belleville in 99. When you said “Windsor/Essex” my ears perked up. Lol
Hello Trena. I admire your skills and knowledge. Thank you and greetings from Sweden
Thankyou
Beautiful! Now I want to strip mine down, LOL Great job!
Go for it! Lol
You did this beautifully!! The customer will be happy with it!!! Niek.
Hey Trena, you took a door that was destined for the dumpster and restored for your customer, you are truly a master craftswomen, an artist. It doesn’t matter how the door was finished, stain , paint, varnish, whatever, it your customer’s door and they are the ones that have to love your work.
Yea Thankyou!
I have admired beautifully painted front doors for many years. It was such a pleasure to see you restore this antique 10/10 💙💙💙
thankyou
From scrap to a million dollar piece by Trena. 👍👍
The dog and cat are buds! That is so sweet! Heck of a struggle on that one! But you always prevail in the end!
The first front door I painted was a bright yellow. My landlord asked if the paint job would calm down after a bit. It never did. A glorious sunshiny welcoming door during grim north-east Scottish winters.
Beautifully done, kudos to your tenacity and skills. Your customers are very, very fortunate.
Thank you very much!
Best quality restoration and repairs ever! I want to come to her shop to be an apprentice for a week!! 😁
@25:55
I see that it is break time for the shop employees.
I too enjoy working on doors. What a feeling you get after you rejuvenate what someone spent years messing up.
Keep up the great work.
Looks wonderful! I was gutted when my parents junked the original 1936 door on my childhood home. What a waste. It was gorgeous and the hardware! Ah, to die for.
I watch your videos because I love to see how you work, but I also loved seeing your house and shop.
As always, you did wonderful job on that door. You have the caring touch!
You are so talented.
Ya, I think it's nice to see a splash of colour in the shop occasionally 😂. Every time I watch a video, I say God Bless your hands Trenna. Continued success.
Patricia, Dublin 🇮🇪
thankyou!
The finished product turned out remarkably well considering all its shortcomings. Thanks for sharing your brand of thinking outside the box skills.
ThanksTrina.Enjoy watching you employ your craft. Thank you from Bill in NovaScotia.👍👍
Why anyone would not want to see the door painted is beyond me. It is beautiful. Thank you for showing your skills Trena. Showing your skills for free. Lovely job.
I cannot believe the work you did on just the bottom of the door… then you said you were painting *jaw dropped* amazing job you are so bad ass
The amount of effort it takes to restore a piece like this vs just replacing with a new one is what makes this work really stand out. We need more of this in our lifes, not just quick fixes. Even though I work in a completely different field (healthcare), I can relate to the work done here. Thank you for the amazing job!
thankyou
Yea, this door had COPD, and got a lung transplant...
Superb job, I could watch and learn all day, thank you so much for sharing
Amazing work!
Thumbs up just for shifting the centre panels! 👍🏻👏🏻
Fantastic job!
Super job, as much as I enjoy the work you do on furniture, this was a nice change of pace.
I always hold my breath on the weekend when I open TH-cam and hope to see a new Trena video. I get giddy when I see you at the top of my feed. 😂 🎉🎉
lol, awesome!
Stunning!
Terrific work. I love to watch you ply your trade.
Thanks!
The door of the human heart can only be opened from inside, you're a treasure in every sense, thanks for letting us look in ! loving the door too !
Nice work, looks outstanding.
You made another amazing transformation! Awesome...
I wasn’t sure I would like the added blocks but it makes sense and the look grew on me. After all the door needs to be functional. I’m very impressed
You do excellent work
Nice job Trena!
Beautiful job. (Why am I not surprised?) I applaud your courage in moving those panels!
Good job looks great.
Wow look at this girl.. magnificentTTTT .. some people are blessed with their working skillls..
thankyou!
Great work Trena. Your attention to detail is second to none. Perhaps you can put a photo up of how the door looks when re-installed in its final place.
will do!
@@johnsfurniturerepair can't wait!!!
Beautiful!
Now that was quirky!!! And the door is now beautiful and functional.
That teal like color is really appealing. Wonderful work. Great attention to detail.
yes i think so too!
the cracks were hypnotics ^^ and that work again is incroyable.
OMG that old surface-mounted lock was *THUGGLY*
yes, lol
Wonderful. That door needed paint and you did it soooo well. I love all the fixing you do to make it a solid piece to last long.
Thanks so much!
Trena that is maticulas work I do rework here in Texas and sometimes get stuck watching you work on antique furniture is awesome to see in help making work a little more easier and the pride of giving furniture a second life. Thank you!!!
Cool, thanks!
Another beautiful restoration video. 😃😃
That's great, thanks for your video, saved the door.
That blue color looks so good with the brass
i agree
I love the way shop dog and shop cat sit together!
In the beginning your expression said it all. If the door could smile, it would be a happy smile, but I'm sure your smile was even happier.
When I was much younger (75 now) I truly wish I had been able to apprentice under your father. I just wound up as an electrician but I always had a love of furniture craftsmanship.
A very clean work with an outstanding result.👍
Wow, that was a pretty ratty looking door when you started. It’s bad when you see something and you think hmm, eight prior coats of paint? You did a fantastic job on the repairs ❤. Good to watch the technique and process. Thank you for sharing your skills ❤. Until next time 💕
Angie from Transcend Furniture Gallery sent me. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this project. True craftsmanship! Will love to go back and see what you've already done and looking forward to future projects.
welcome! tell Angie thankyou, always happy to grow my community. cheers
I don't know why I thought it was the worst idea to restore this sorry looking door. Obviously, the people who insisted you do the job knew you are a magician. Only someone versed in the dark arts would be able to tackle such an insane job. Seriously, the result is unbelievable. Thank you for filming it.
Thankyou!
Great job - beautiful painting technique on top of the ace restoration. Thank you for the detailed steps on closing the gaps with the blocks and clamps.
Der sanfte Glanz passt wunderbar, eine Tür mit Charakter - Thanks for sharing
Your craftsmanship is superb but let’s not forget that your underscoring and editing is also spectacular! Such a master ❤
Great job.
Wonderful video. Great work. Thanks so much.
Utterly Brilliant, an amazing finish.
Excellent job Trina!!!
Absolutely outstanding work!
Beautiful job! Love it.
Boy is Windsor gonna miss you!
WOW, If had not watched the whole video I would have said you got a new door, but you gave this old door a new lease on life. Trena you do amazing work. I love the colour you painted on the outside of this old door. You are doing fantastic work with all the fine details on those pieces you work on. I am sure the customer was very pleased with how it turned out.
Yes they were very happy. Thankyou so much!
I can't count the number of times i grimace when I see you doing a repair in your videos that I think is wrong and then have to eat some humble pie when it turns out beautiful. Great work Trena, you inspire me.
Lol, thanks for being Honest
I can just imagine what's it's like for a new piece of furniture coming into your shop. It would be scared and tired and worn out, but when it comes in, the pieces that you've worked on telling it, it's ok your in safe hands now. You were always going to win the battle, the door just needed a little bit of care and coaxing. 👍🤗
Wow what a stunning transformation!
I was so excited for this video. I need to repair and repaint the back door to my garage. It takes a beating from the elements. It's the original wooden door to my 69 year old home. It's smaller than modern doors and having a new one custom made is more than my repair and maintenance budget can absorb. It has three panels and a window. I'm eager to see how you get this door done. My house was built by a retired farmer and it has lots of quirks too, but it's solidly built and I love it. ❤
nice, go for it!
I like the mitres on the little blocks and the dull blue brings out the gleaming brass a treat, nice. 😄👍
Such a talent you have. Beautiful work
Looks completely different. What amazing skills and patience
