I love this guy's chill vibe. It's so soothing and comforting. He doesn't try to show off. It's just pure practicality and competency. But the result is always pristine!
Very calming. The speech of so many people seems to me nowadays to have - well, _jagged edges_ . No jagged edges here...
Your attention to detail is absolutely insane.
Great vid once again. Not fancy tools, not much talking, short but informative format, nice triple tone step table, patience, attention to detail, great end result. What's not to like?
Thank you.
Edit: nice to see that you left the part with the strikes from the stripper. You addressed the problem and gave the solution.
Also liked the last seconds where I could admire that road.. haha
I really like your videos, your voice is so easy to listen too.
It’s nice that this one had an oops in it. I’m going to be refinishing a Bruno Mathsson style narrow drop leaf table soon. It needs quite a bit of TLC and I’ve got lots of info to help from your videos.
Thank you.
This may sound weird but your videos ease my anxiety symptoms
Haha me too... kinda like TH-cam comfort food😂
What a relaxing video can't wait for part 2. Keep up the amazing work
Thank you.
I have a pair of these and will be restoring them to go with the matching coffee table. I inherited the set from my parents and have always wanted them because I found them beautiful from childhood to the present; they are timeless in my mind. On to part 2...
Dashner, you TEASE! I was totally engrossed when you dropped “and that’s it for part 1...”
I know it says Part 1 in the title but I’d already forgotten!
Really like the voice-over approach to your videos.
Looking forward to part 2!
I really like your videos. Your commentary is so relaxed and down to earth. Great work, and looking forward to the next ;-)
Thanks for watching.
I just found you and subbed today. You have the patience of a saint. If you have children, I'm sure you are a great dad!
I have 2 of these that I plan on refinishing next week. Can hardly wait for part 2!
OMG!!! I have those exact endtables, another square and round storage endtable plus the matching coffee table. All from Lane, courtesy of my Grandparents. I believe I have seen the coffee table video already... Thank you so much, because mine need work too!!!
Interesting mix of woods on this table. Walnut, ash, and hickory(?). My buddy has two of those tables, but without the second tier. Love that dove tail detail on them.
Hi Dashner.
I usually never leave comments, but I wanted to thank you for sharing your work.
All the pieces you restore end up being very beautiful. Your videos are so soothing, hearing your voice is very relaxing and every step is so well explained. I love your style.
I don't know if you're open to hear suggestions, but if you are, I would love to see a video about different stains and how you pick which one to use. That would be very interesting.
Once again, thanks for sharing your work!
Yours are some of my favorite stripper videos on the internet
Thank you very much for sharing your adventure. The video is neat and relaxing as others. Hello from Turkey.
Thank you. Hello from Minneapolis.
Very relaxing to watch and thanks for helps me not to mess up as badly lol the furniture I'm trying to refinish . Thank u for your videos
Omg at the end when where was nothing on the driveway. Hilarious. Maybe the funniest thing I've seen all day. I will be back to see part 2.
I want to refinish all my Duncan Phyfe...but it is an entire bedroom set. Four-poster bed, chest of drawers, mirrored vanity and nightstand. Also an un-matched antique barley twist drop leaf side table I use for a sewing/dining table in my tiny home. (200 sq. ft.)
I wish you could come to Texas and help!!! ❤
Keep up the good work...looking forward to Part 2 of this!
Nice video. I always look forward to listening to you speak. You do great work 👍🏻
My heart stopped at 2:31... :))
Anyway, it was a pleasant surprise to see your video before I wrap it up for the day. That is a beautiful piece, can't wait to see the final result. Cheers!
I must share this whit my friends this chanel is sooo coooollllllll 💫💫💫💕💕💕💕💕💕
Omgg you gave me 💕 you are so niceee
Yay yay yay! I was thinking about your channel today and hoping for a video!
this is super useful. I will eventually repair the table (it never got varnished) on my own and It will be one of my first restoration.
I have a smaller piece to restore before so i can test my knowledge and practice but hey you gotta start somewhere.
I have three of these tables! The original finish was a walnut stain and as you said, the two colors of wood looked closer in color to each other.
Looking forward to seeing the finished product! Thanks for sharing another great video. ATB : )
I really Love this Channel and to listen and See your Videos is really relaxing. I like 60s furniture but wouldnt put them in my Appartement because i am into European furniture from the 18th and 19th Century. Good work and looking forward to the next Videos.
I think these tables are another subtle example of the USA-U.K. divide. I can’t remember seeing this style of table until I saw them on your channel. You’ve restored a few now, but that’s not saying you are in any way repeating yourself as each table throws up its own challenges. In the U.K. in the 60s and 70s we had some horrendous "coffee" table in the middle of the room, the worst of them had an atrocious Formica top and the almost obligatory shelf underneath where the two TV guides of the day were kept along with all sorts of rubbish. The biggest irony of all was the name of the table as very few Brits in the 60s drank coffee. Then when we did start drinking more coffee the coffee table started to disappear in favour of the nest of tables that were popular in the mid 70s to the early 80s. We are a funny little nation.
As always a great video and looking forward to part 2. Thank you.
Thank you for watching.
I wish I had cool furniture to restore. Great job! Can't wait for part 2:)
New subscriber. Really enjoying your videos. Of course I’m a big fan of Mid Century furniture, the clean simple lines. Oh my!
Thanks for sharing 😃
Just found your channel and love it! I have a lot of MCM and really enjoyed your restorations.
I have the exact same piece that I picked up from habitat for humanity. Mine is separating at the front around the edges so I need to address that. Best of luck with yours!
Parchment paper works great for gluing situations where squeeze out will cause a clamping block to stick
Love these peices. I have a coffee table and a end table like this at home. Unfortunately the end table is painted. Plan on striping the paint and refinishing soon. I found that the teak natural stain made by zar was a near perfect match.
Always excited about new videos from you!
Thank you!
Same. I love the furniture and seeing the pieces being brought back to beautiful makes me happy.
S H Me too.
Hey man I absolutely love your videos, I watch them with my friend all the time. I’ve learned alot and feel the gratification that you do, vicariously haha
Something that I have always thought though is that you should post a before and after clip at the very end, so we can really see the progress you made!!
I have 4 of these exact same tables. Love them.
Looking forward to part 2. 👍
Always learn something. Thank you.
yes another great video !!! please keep making content thank you
Another video, Yay! 😊
Just an observation, before using the heat gun, I was surprised you didn't check first if the top shelf was screwed to the bottom piece. I wonder if as a general rule these pieces are usually glued in and that is why you didn't look. But, what do I know?
I was bitting my nails until you were able to separate it. My reaction was Ouch!
I can't wait to see Part 2. 😄
Oh come on!
I don’t like to wait for parts 2
(Just joking 😄)
Great video, as always
Like your vids! I learn so much from them :-) Thanks!
FYI---the original finish on Lane Acclaim tables and a lot of other furniture is lacquer. Acetone dissolves lacquer very quickly and is about half the cost of Citrustrip, plus you don't need another solvent to clean up any residue because the acetone leaves nothing behind. You do need to use heavy duty chemical resistant gloves because nothing else holds up to acetone. And a respirator is a good idea, too.
You are amazing. Can you please provide the name of the stripper you use? I have two tables that I want to refinish this video looks awesome. Thank you so much for your help
Don't keep us hanging! I'm really curious about the results. Such a pretty little table.
Try using brown parcel tape on your blocks when clamping veneer with wood glue oozing. the glue doesn't stick to that tape. But a cool video
And this looks like it goes with the $15 Garage Sale coffee table you refinished.
Yep, they are both Lane Acclaim.
Oooo! A cliffhanger ;D
Sweet table!
What stripper did you use? And what grit of sand paper? And what about the finish? What brand did you use. This is awesome work, and I actually recently got 2 lane end tables exactly like this, but they need to be refinished.
Is it odd that I find it so relaxing watching you remove the stripper? 😄
I just typed the same thing! I guess we're not weird. 😊
Almost like pimple popping!
This really is a labor of love. Lots of chemistry and residue, how did you dispose? There is so much of this furniture on the sides of the road, dropped into the laps of charity, etc. so I applaud what you are trying to do, but it seems to carry such a huge chemical footprint! I no doubt would be doing the same if there was a great emotional tie to it, but I would not do this on a regular basis! A quick cleaning with more cleanup than outlay of chemicals, then spray sealant or marine sealant, then outdoors on the back deck to be used to death in our harsh weather. Then nobody worries about barbecue sauce, cup holder stains, whatever. I hope this comes out really rewarding, especially if you are fixing it for someone truly attached. That is the kicker, they will last forever so now that we got thousands, literally taking over our garages and landfills, how much money and chemistry do we devote?
You are kidding right? Do some research on landfill space and you will find that their foot print is miniscule in relatiin to our overall landmass. Outlay of chemicals?
Patrick Hickey hon, I guess I have an advantage I did not discuss. My husband is a scientist for the state who inspects and helps folks on the local level, but every manifest of movement of chemicals and residues also must pass him, for the state and of course all of the other states and places stuff ends up. He also helps out individual members of the public. We have committed our lives to helping people, actually. My service animal is also an air quality rescue kiddo, and my dad was a professional furniture man. I worry about things, yes, maybe too much. My husband has worked in wastewater treatment, paper mills , large industry, and now in universal waste. We talk msds over breakfast, you know? In this case I was harping a bit. Chemical footprints involve quite a bit more than radius of landfills, there are also the special and universal stuff, packaging, etc. and it is not just post consumer. Inappropriate small shop waste cleanup is huge, chemically soaked rags, etc, even in some places enzymes and polymers we don’t even consider. Anyway, I don’t think we even need debate here. I totally agree with what you did. My husband just asked for my help looking at a property, gotta go. Take care,
You should use wax paper between the block of wood you're using on your clamp and the furniture piece while you're attempting to glue something
Beautiful.
Awesome video! Love the content. Do you always use stain remover to every piece of furniture? Any reason why you wouldn't just sand it all out? Where do you throw away your used stain remover and mineral spirits? What type of glove do you use?
I prefer to use stripper instead of sanding the finish off. There is less chance of damaging the veneer with the stripper.
Do you just throw away the leftover stripper and mineral spirits? I have been told different opinions.
Yippee skippie I can't wait for next video!!!!!
I have a Lane cocktail table that I need to get rid of. Needs restoration. Not too bad. Would you like it?
Love it!
Do you know where one can buy replace steel glides for this table? The glides on the table I'm refinishing are rusted...
Is there a particular brand of stripper that you find is better for this kind of furniture?
What type of stripper do you typically use? How do you dispose of the paint that was removed?
"That feeling when the heavy coat of stripper goes on" - like taking a warm bath. Ahhhh.
I want to see it now
💜
Great job Steve! Also. just curious, after the restoration, what do you think this table will be valued at?
Thanks! The value can be hard to pin down. In the MPLS area I would say around $100-$200. Maybe more if being sold in a vintage shop. Also, the demand for Acclaim isn't what it once was. I remember around 5 years ago Acclaim pieces would sell really fast but the market seems to have cooled a bit.
Dashner Design & Restoration interesting. Is the MC style cooling off then maybe or just this style. The piece turned out great still!
How do you price the repaired piece of furniture
I bet the dowels broke from uneven distribution of the mallet on both sides, and not being careful about things. I'm right, aren't I?
WHATCHA MEAN STAY TUNED FOR PART TWO! I WANNA SEE NOW! xD
It’s a year later, I can’t find part two.
Looks like cousins to the last ones you touched up
Is this a match to the $15 garage sale find from four months ago?
Yes, they are both Lane Acclaim.
It’s beautiful... can’t wait to see part 2!
will this part 2 be like the guitar part 2?
Haha, no, this one will actually happen. Who knows, maybe there will even be a part 2 for the guitar video one of these days.
Ah damn, ended so soon!
Stay tuned for part 2. Coming soon!
You should really start checking for screws before hand, lol.
I have 5 Lane Acclaim tables. I imagine myself being as meticulous as you...but I know you are a pro...and me a not. I love watching the stripper removal...is that unusual? Ha.
6:52 take that out of context.
i still dont get the point of tables with that spoiler looking thing... it's like something from jetsons that makes no sense
It’s a good spot to put a lamp.
