Hello Mr. Johnson, your patience is amazing in restorations. Everytime I see one of your videos, I want our weather to dry in order to try restoring some of my father's old tables. I can hardly wait. Thank you for sharing and your inspiring us to work on projects. Your awsome.
I learn so much. Never think no one watches your restoration. You have lots of devoted followers. I watch them all the time in my workshop. You are really good!
Ok, I have been watching Thomas for awhile now. Without a doubt, we are being taught by one of the worlds great masters. Thank you for sharing with us.
Love your videos. When I was very sick in January I could just sit on the sofa and watch TV. I didn't, I watchted your videos and it kept me going. Thanks for all your work.
Ive been a subscriber for about a year and half now. 24 years old in my first home. As an amateur furniture refinisher your videos have been the easiest to follow and the most educational I've found. Thank you for the care in assembling these videos Ive found them immensely helpful and enjoyable.
Top notch as always. Very outstanding work. That furniture can't be fixed. It's lost Tom: "Hold my heat gun" Its simply amazing what you do with furniture. A true master of your craft
Beautiful piece of furniture ... my MIL brought a hand-carved piece over from Scotland that she found in a barn under a rubbish heap. Its absolutely beautiful and very dark wood. Hoping to keep it in our family for another 100 years.
As an artist, I know just how hard color matching can be, Thomas, but you always manage to do a decent job of that when you restore furniture. It's one of your many skills that I absolutely can appreciate! Great job on this. I hope the owners enjoyed what you did for them.
Yes…the mastery demonstrated by this man is so so impressive. I highly respect the integrity of every step he takes in the repair of this piece. Always beautiful results. Kudos, Tom Johnson!
A really engrossing video. It amazes me that you have so many alternative methods to fix the damage. I guess that comes with years of experience. Hopefully you have someone you are teaching so this craft will not be lost.
Hand raised over here in California! Ooh, ooh, PLEASE teach me!!! Hand waving frantically!! Arm flailing!! LOL. Awesome videos, have learned so much. No one compares!! Thanks Thomas Johnson!!
New subscriber here. I've been binging your content for the last few days and I just wanted to say how impressed I am by your skill and artistry. Also, there is something about your voice that soothes my soul. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. Keep up the great work. ATB : )
I just watched this great video again! I find that every time I watch them over again I pick up on more and more of your craftsmanship and technique Tom. And that in of itself is worth the time to watch them over and over again. no matter how many times I watch them I still come away with something new to my mental archives. Thanks again Tom for another great video and for sharing.
WOW, your work is so amazing. You are one of the best CRAFTSMEN, I have ever seen. I hate to sound like a broken record but, I absolutely LOVE your work. You are AMAZING. I wish I could one tenth of what you do. Please keep making these videos they are more fun than watching a movie. Thanks.
Nice piece of work today. I have done a repair or two in the past. I wish you had been with me then. I could have done a much better job. Not much of this type work does come my way but when the next one does you will have been there to help me. Thank you for sharing and please stay healthy.
I looked at several restorers, there are no such neat professionals as you, Mr. Johnson, it's a great pleasure to watch how you work. Good luck to find you, thanks for the videos👋👍😊
Wonderful work, as always! Couldn't help noticing from about 20:35 on that the Welsh Cupboard is standing next to a Federal Bureau Chest. Delighted to see you've done a new video on this piece, too. Will watch next!
Well I live in wales and have restored many antiques but this is a new form to me but the construction with its square pegs is spot on for cardiganshire late 1700s
Is it painful for you watching the original finish of antiques like this being removed and refinished? I have worked with many experts over the years and I have never seen such a thing. Cleaning yes, but aggressive removal and replacement of original, antique finishes--No Way! I have only seen finishes applied when missing pieces have to be added, but it is limited only to the added work. Matching is important, but secondary to disturbing the original finish. Stripping the original finish to refinish the whole thing to attempt to match in the new piece is just disturbing to me. I've seen this done by others (not experts) many times. I've even seen clueless people (supposed antique brokers) that had original fabrics and finishes removed and refinished on pre-1800 Chippendale furniture. It makes me cry.
I may be completely wrong, but I think it's provincial French (which also would have used square pegs, fake mitres and elm) - the swagger and curls on the top rail, the side rails and the apron, as well as the single double-petal flower in the top centre and the separate stand are very French. I would have expected a Welsh piece to have the drawers in the base attached to the legs/feet, and a cupboard/dresser on top, rather than just the feet and rails in the base.
Maria Richmann you’re very naive. Go to wintertur and see the masterpieces there. I know the conservators there and those pieces are almost all refinished in some form or another. I also know one of the magicians in the field and they will get million dollar pieces from Sotheby’s or Christie’s and fake the finishes so convincingly, that many times the new owners want that old crusty finish re done. Do not criticize Tom or any other restorer to make a piece look good again. You’re watching too many episodes of antiques roadshow.
Maria Richmann no because he didn’t remove the finish. He didn’t hit bare wood anywhere and was careful in supporting the wood and structure. He has been doing this for decades and has restored thousands of museum and museum quality pieces. Settle down.
Wonderful, just wonderful, sir. There is a great deal of subtle mastery in what, at first glance, appears to be a simple restoration. Thank you for sharing, Mr. Johnson.
Everytime I watch your videos I learn something ne. I have applied some methods, which I learned from you, to the dresser that I've been working on it. I have just completed my dresser and I really thank you,Tom because that you share your videos with us.
Uh oh, I just realized something, when I watch you work now, I find myself saying stuff like," hmm that could use some epoxy putty there, and then you say, " I think I'll use some epoxy Putty here". and it goes on and on, does that mean I have watch way too many of your videos that I know what you are going to do next? not always. but it expose's my devotion to all that you do. I have learned so so much Tom Thank you for your expertise, and taking the time to make these video's and sharing. Kudo's to Ella for being there too!.
Your “pretty good” is so much more. You are a master at what you do. I always learn from you. It looks like you’re staying safe during this Covid dust up. Stay so! Looking forward to your next video.
Really enjoy watching you Tom..you can't get skill out of a book, It takes the experience to actually do jobs and to know what you are doing to get a nice result
@@johnsonrestoration Thanks for the reply Tom, Love the finish touches you put on the furniture, I bet the customers are very pleased, will keep watching lol
Thanks very much for your thoughtful, respectful approach to your work. I learn more than I anticipate with every piece. This is my kind of restoration work!
Great video Tom. I am a retired furniture maker. Just as well it isn't me doing the restoration I would end up getting the sander into it and making it look like new.
Pretty good, yes. Darn good, absolutely! Like so many of your viewer's, I've used many of your techniques on things around my house over the years. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you for these videos, I look forward to each new one, and always learn something! My wife and I enjoy the snippets of your chickens and birds before and after too, some darn good photography there!
I think it looks really good, Tom. I find these videos very interesting and satisfying to watch. Thank you very much! I have a barn cat that looks pretty much like the cat at the end.
From a Portuguese from Aveiro. Another excellent restoration work and another excellent video. My sincere congratulations. I look forward to the next. A hug and much health to you all
That elm is a lovely colour of wood. I like to see finely crafted furniture with their inlays etc. but my favourites are the ordinary things like this Welsh cupboard.
Great work, so calming and your wee cat looks like my Miss Toots, I really like all the beginning and ends with the animals and birds.It sure looks like a lovely place to live.
I've been in and out of different joinery shops and the like for about ten years now and haven't seen scrapers like yours until now, fantastic bits of kit.
Great job! This strange welsh cupboard reminds me some similar french pieces of furniture. They have been made, mostly in brittany, from ancient boxed beds which were no longer in use but had a great sentimental value for the families. If this is right, the two « doors » used to be ornemental fixed panels.
Looks marvelous not just ok! The sound of sanding is somehow satisfying, spent time sanding different projects down to a nice smooth finish. Several thin coats of hand wipe poly sanded between each coat makes for a lovely finish. Perhaps it reminds me of the satisfaction of seeing wood come to life and a nice smooth finish. Not heavy coated nor shiny necessarily. Just the wood showing its beauty.
I admit that I like furniture that can be used, while retaining as much of the old character (and material) as possible. A chair that stands in a museum may be a work of both craft and art, it is much less near to my heart than one that is still used. I can fully understand the use of epoxy to help old furniture stand up against the rigours of continued use, especially with the conservative approach you show in using it. Once more my thanks fof making and sharing these videos.
Its a honour to watch you doing your craft. You sir are a class above.
Stay safe
Thank you! You too!

I absolutely and heartily agree.....and not just the craftsmanship but the tricks, the depth of knowledge, and the great sense of patience.
a master of just enough and no more, he resists all temptation to excess.
You are very welcome! I may not agree, but I do appreciate it
Thank you!
Thanks!
I see a new Thomas Johnson video. I pause it, make a mug of tea, settle in, and watch it twice. I so appreciate you!
Thank you! And I appreciate you as well
Mr Thomas is just an open book of wisdom in wood working and restoration I learn so much every time I watch
Thank you! I have always practiced an "open book" policy!
Love your videos. When I was very sick in January I could just sit on the sofa and watch TV. I didn't, I watchted your videos and it kept me going. Thanks for all your work.
Thank you! I hope you're feeling better
@@johnsonrestoration A lot better now, thanks.

Great job again. Really enjoyed the wax technique.
Thank you very much!
I always enjoy your videos, Tom. They're like free woodworking classes, and your narrations are great.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching
love watching old furniture been restored by a good man
Thank you!
What a gorgeous piece. You really restored it to BETTER than "pretty good!" Pats (and a treat?) to Ella.
Thank you! I'll tell her they're from you!
Great use of the large dowel to keep down molding during the epoxy glue-up. Keep 'em coming, Tom.
Thanks, will do!
Nice to get help from the neighbor. Watching your videos makes me want to visit Gorham, Maine. It's a part of the country I've never seen.
Thanks! You should definitely come to Maine if you like old houses. Massachusetts too.
Thanks! Houses too!
@@johnsonrestoration
Yeah, but Patriots fans...😒
It is always a pleasure to watch you work as you use your lifetime of experience repairing and restoring antiques.
Thank you!
Thank you Thomas, for a perfect Saturday morning, cuppa, toast and your video to watch. :)
Good morning! You're welcome!
Thank you so much for posting these videos. Your calm demeanor and precise craftsmanship is very soothing in these troubling times.
Thank you!
I'm from Wales, and seeing this wonderful old cupboard brings back memories of my grandmothers' cupboard. You did such a wonderful job on it.
Thank you!
Beautiful piece of furniture ... my MIL brought a hand-carved piece over from Scotland that she found in a barn under a rubbish heap. Its absolutely beautiful and very dark wood. Hoping to keep it in our family for another 100 years.

When I watch your new videos, I always think, “That is my favorite piece of furniture!” ......until you upload the next one!
Thanks! Actually, it's kind of the same for me.
Another great video!! The kitty at the very end is adorable!! And of course the black lab.
Thanks!
Great work as always Tom! Thank you for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP

Thanks! My daughter is an incredible woodworker and has certainly repaired a piece or 2, and she has a woodworking business, but not restoration work
Wow! Ur workmanship always amazes me. 👍
