Love your ideas! And I really like that you don’t talk over the whole process but keep it informative with the subtitles. Makes your channel different from the others!
I've watched a bunch of your videos now. Beyond the re-imagining and repurposing you do of pieces, I am an absolute fan of how you never seem to let anything go to waste. Socks, old cushions, any random piece of wood or metal from an old project... you're always using things that other people would throw away. Its completely commendable. And your work is also beautiful.
unbelievably wonderful work. The drawers look completely "real". As an old architect, I have seen hundreds of these old cabinets, this is the first one I have seen that was not orange from the shellac and varnish. None have legs, I guess because they get so heavy, that loaded with plans would be HEAVY. You never cut a corner in craftsmanship, but your design sense is impeccable as well. The tonal difference at the end was a heck of a nice touch. Thanks for doing things the RIGHT way.
Most of these were made of metal very very early. Since the drawings are legal documents, they worried about fire. Frank Lloyd Wright although innovative, made allot of stupid mistakes. He was sued many times, these drawings and specs were center stage in court.
One reason for later problems is that he experimented with new building materials. Falling Water is a prime example of the early use of concrete and its subsequent problems. It’s not held up well.
@@melindaostergren8115 That is the one in PA, I think. Wright evidently had engineers and other architects screaming and warning him of the dangers. Falling Waters is a basic fiasco, but Wright was too busy making a name for himself and entirely too egotistical. He did implement new concepts that others would later employ in more practical ways. He was part of a general trend in those days, so hard to tell if he was just stealing ideas from others.
I used to browse catalogs with the thin drawers for oversized drawings or printouts. The components were modular. The base was a separate unit the drawers could be bought as one or two units and stacked. A separate top could be added. Have seen them sometimes used as a twin/single bed base in an office which could be a guest room. For that setup two bases, two drawer units and a cut plywood top worked.
I'm binge watching your videos. Your wood working skills are incredible & your video editing is equally amazing. Good enough to be on your own TV show. Thank you - I'm learning so much. My skills, confidence & standards are so much higher thanks to these videos! Please don't stop making them. :)
This was incredible! I don't know which is better. Your furniture flipping or your video and editing skills! You are officially my new favorite flipper.
When I finished an unfinished dining room table with 6 chairs years ago, I would sand in-between coats of stain and sealer, and with my eyes closed and a piece of nylon stocking over my hand, I would feel the wood for any rough spots or burrs. The nylon would pick up the slightest imperfection in the smoothness. It came out glass smooth! ( I was 14-16 yrs old at the time!) My parents used the table and chairs for many years! You do beautiful and precise work very good attention to minor details, that makes all the difference between good work and great work! Blessings to you!
WOW!!! Wish you lived here in Adelaide, Australia. I'd happily enrol for tuition. You're amazing, you're craftsmanship is superb and your creations sublime. A joy to watch. Thank you from down under. 🍸🍸😊💖🇦🇺
I hope you get good prices for your furniture. If I knew the care and quality of craftsmanship that went into the furniture I was buying, was as good as this, I would feel it only right to pay the best I could. Please keep making vids, they are inspiring.
That dark stain in the ridges to help sell the illusion was inspired. Such a gorgeous piece and phenomenal craftsmanship. Put this on to listen to/watch while I worked before I realized it wasn't narrated like the rest 😂 definitely didn't get work done during.
The finished piece is unbelievably fantastic! Nobody could tell that it started out as anything other than an architect cabinet. I've always liked the look of those cabinets, so to see how you converted the look from something plain is very impressive! Great job!
There aren’t any words that could do justice! I don’t do any wood working but could watch your videos all day. I agree with so may others, your editing is amazing. I am in awe of your skills. Thank you for sharing 🙏
my grandfather was a carpenter. He would have loved to see what you are doing. He loved his profession and loved wood in all forms and shapes. You remind me of him with your skill and passion. Amazing talent and skills
New subscriber here and wanted to say watching your video is so relaxing. You definitely have skills and great ideas but I think the fact that there is no talking is what I like best.
I love it!!!! I thought at first you were making drawer pulls…the dividers from salvaged drawer parts were amazing!!!! I want to get some bees wax and lemon oil. Thanks Andy!!!!
Beautifully done! I love that you took the time in restoring and also making it even more amazing and made dividers. Too many flippers are just painting furniture because it’s easy. Thank you for making that old dresser absolutely stunning!
So sorry for the repetition, but you are amazing! I love watching what you can do with a piece of furniture that would be destined for the landfill! Please keep sharing your videos because you are an inspiration. Thank you. Take care, stay safe.
MM! You are an artist with wood! Seems like you push the limits way beyond what’s ‘normal’. Absolutely, creative without covering up with colored paints. Please don’t stop! I’ve learned from you. Thanks so much for sharing. 🤩⭐️😻
I am amazed with your ideas, your level of organization, your end results as they are always way above what I was expecting. You truly are an artist and it shows in every piece you do💯💯👏👏
Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Such beautiful workmanship. Makes me want take up wood working. I enjoy with extreme pleasure the way you display each step.
This turned out so beautifully. This look has made a statement in home decor along with the apothecary drawer look recently. This looks like a brand new piece of furniture off the showroom floor!
I LOVE your filming style. Very original and minimalist, yet entertaining. It’s fresh. I also love that it’s “silent.” It reminds me of the Odd Tinkering channel which I also love!
Amazing - I wish I had someone to teach me these skills - my house would look amazing! Love that you show the details of what you are doing and give us the products you have used. Just EXCELLENT!
Love and appreciate all your technique demonstrations for restoration, preservation and construction, as well as the decorative ideas. Very inspirational.
Love your ideas! And I really like that you don’t talk over the whole process but keep it informative with the subtitles. Makes your channel different from the others!
I like that your project includes even the interiors and the back of the furniture differently to the others
It looks amazing! I learned also a lot from your staining and polishing procedure. What a Change. Thanks for the great Video!
Muito elegante 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I agree, and I also like that there's no annoying background music. Just the sound of the work.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
ASMR fans probably subscribe to hear all those erotic sanding down sounds

probably also real cabinet would be heavy also from all the wood required to create all those thin drawers.

The Atlantic Ocean divides us, that's good because I would buy any chest of drawers. I wish you many interesting projects.

Both are simultaneously great!!!

Good job, kid. A lot better than these other "furniture flippers" I've been watching.
More videos, please -- and thank you!

I love the tone variation in the stain!
Stunning workmanship,,,,, beautiful beautiful beautiful
The finished piece is unbelievably fantastic! Nobody could tell that it started out as anything other than an architect cabinet. I've always liked the look of those cabinets, so to see

You, my dear, are one clever boy.
Master craftsman remakes wood furniture with phenomenal results. Pushes them around on a rickety wheeled platform that appears to be 100 years old.
I love your vision on this one, totally transformed this plain dresser...tfs...Take care...stay safe...
Thank you Martine, you stay safe too 😊
Your talent is amazing. You took a standard chest of drawers and made them into something beautiful. I soooo want one of these now! Xxx
You rescued that piece of furniture. Clever idea.
my grandfather was a carpenter. He would have loved to see what you are doing. He loved his profession and loved wood in all forms and shapes. You remind me of him with your skill and passion. Amazing talent and skills
Beautiful work - bravo! I would buy that if I saw it in an antique store!
You are so talented !
I've seen someone else do this but I like your version more. You IMO seem to put more thought into the realism of the end product.
Professional is the word I have for you!!! Beautiful work!!!
Nice job. Really like the care you took with this too.
Beautiful transformation! Plus the cinematography was great too!
You are so clever! I love your attention to detail. And some of your methods are eye-opening ones that I’ve never seen before. Your piece is gorgeous.
