    Hi, everyone. Thanks for watching this video. I want to let everyone know that I just launched a Patreon page for this channel. The link is in the video description. Patreon is a way for viewers of my videos to show their support for the work I do and gain access to behind the scenes updates from me. I just launched the Patreon page last month and I'm working on coming up with additional perks for Patrons. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you and thanks for watching.

      Patreon names Tier 1: Scrapers, Tier 2: Sanders, Tier 3: Lacquers?

      How about a video showing your face to patrons only.

    • @bobfesmire9721

      Maybe some deep-dive videos into materials, techniques or your knowledge of mid-century furniture, especially brands to look for.

      I went & checked it out. This is the first time I have been interested in becoming a Patron. Sadly, I discovered Patreonage is outside of my budget. Nevertheless I wish you continued inspiring & rewarding success with your channel, which continues to inspire & reward my viewership. 💝

      Maybe you could allow the patrons to purchase something you have restored every month, like an auction maybe.

    Not only do you do incredible work, you have the most relaxing furniture flipping/refinishing/wood working channel on TH-cam. Great ASMR that I sometimes play to fall asleep to. :)

      I agree: most soothing, reassuring voice on the Internet!

      Absolutely. Bob Ross except with a carbide scraper. 🙂

      Agreed. Him and Baumgartner Restoration are the two channels that make actually good repair videos with speech in it, otherwise I like channels that don't say much lol

    I’ve been going through pretty serious depression, but the way I squealed like a piggy when I saw you’ve posted. Thank you sir, I needed this boost of serotonin

    Another beautiful piece. I watch quite a few refinishing channels but you are, by far, my favorite. I like that you explain what you're doing and don't feel the need to add distracting music as a filler. The silence helps the viewer to really focus on the work you're doing. I also love the end reveal where we can just stare at the entire finished piece, unadorned or staged. Keep up the amazing work!

    Gorgeous! I just love watching your work. The beauty of that Walnut veneer was outstanding and it was great that you could retain it.

    She's a beauty! I especially like the visual contrast between the snow and the table, it makes for great presentation.

  • @veronicafowler4893
    @veronicafowler4893 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    As a beginning furniture restorer, in this and future videos, I'd love it if you could be more specific about the grit of sandpaper you use. I also really appreciate it when you show packages or mention specific brands of finishes, stains, etc. It helps guide my choices. Love your work!

    Dare I say these redos look better than the factory finish. Great job.

    Just got a scraper for a windowsill in my 114 year old apartment. I had tired several other method with very little luck but with the scraping it is so easy I will be done in a day.

    Sometimes the simpler looking pieces of furniture turn out looking the best. This is one of those times! I love this table. Nice job! 💜

    I thoroughly enjoy your common sense approach to every piece you save. Refreshing to see the value in these pushed-aside relics. There's incredible beauty in everything you touch. Thank you so much for the time you spend recording your talents!

    I love your work. I have been following you for one year now. First from my personal account and now from this one that hosts my Persian furniture flipping channel. You were and are one of my greatest sources of inspiration. I really, really love your work. Thanks for being there.

    Beautiful Walnut veneer on top. 👍

  • @chrisdavis1722
    @chrisdavis1722 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It’s a beautiful, solid piece, and great job matching the legs and apron to the top. It looks like it was always a solid piece built out of walnut.
    Sidenote, I looked into using wood conditioner from a few vids back and got to use it on a current project with knotty variegated pine boards, and it worked like a charm to tone down the effect of the grain once stained. Thanks for all your tips 👍

    Another great restoration. Gotta say, it is nice to watch something so relaxing. I can't pin it down whether its the tone of your voice or the absence of the annoying music that most play in the background. Whatever it is, keep it going. Nice job!
