- This is an extreme restoration of a vintage desk. So extreme, that we almost brought it to the curb about half way through! It was a struggle, but we kept at it and we're glad we did! We think the end result is beautiful!

Excellent restoration, Jim and Cindy. She came up an absolute treat.
Thanks Tarnya! Love your vids too!
@@FurnitureWarriors ohhhhh thank you so much 😊
That one made my heart pitter pat. That patch is amazing.
Thanks Jay!
Beautiful restoration, Jim and Cindy 💜
Thank you kindly Christi!
You two did a wonderful job on this piece
Thanks Kathleen!
Love the glue syringe heat trick, thanks for sharing that one! As always you two have such an eye for detail. So much work but this turned out incredible. And such a unique piece. Glad you pushed through!
Thanks Jenn! This was a tough one, but so worth it when it's finished!
Very nice. So happy you didn’t paint. Love the grain matching technique.
Thank you!
You guys! Beautiful job so relaxing watching you work on this desk. Saved it from landfill 😍
Awesome! Thank you Sarah!
You both do such amazing work and what attention to detail.
Thank you so much Rhonda!
Beautiful!!! The repairs on the veneer made it seem flawless! The extention shelf is so nice and original! Thank you for saving this piece and for sharing.
Glad you like it!
Oh WOW!!! Sooo Gorgeous!!! I Love watching y’all do repairs and getting little tips like the lighter with the glue needle!!! Love, Love, Love💓❤️💓
Thanks Cathy!
That was a cool desk. An asset to any room. Excellent. Job.
Thanks Joan!
LOVE the grain matching technique. Looks great!
Thank you! Cheers!
That’s beautiful! The shelf that folds down is very cool!
Thanks Ann!
Great persistence and job well done!💯
Thank you! 👍
You did an awesome job with the restoration of this desk. I've been watching you since the beginning and you have improved a lot yourself
Thanks so much 😊
You guys are amazing. Another beautiful restoration. You remind me so much of my parents. ☺️ adorable
Thank you! 😊
Terrific job, as always! Love the old typewriter table and enjoyed the graphics you used.🌸
Thanks so much! 😊
Hey guys great job. Little secret with a syringe to hold it upright and pull the plunger back, My dad was alive he was a doctor and if you pull back on the plunger it cleans out the needle. Then store it . Blessings Suzanne Ozarksflipper
Love the tip! Thanks Suzanne!😀
That's an amazing piece. I love the hinged shelf, such a nice touch. Your attention to detail never wavers. I have an old Hoosier cabinet that was stored in a garage for a decade. I hope I can accomplish ¼ the success Jim and Cindy had on this desk.
Thanks so much!!!
Yay Jim you moved the glue around with your fingers 🥰 I get a lot of slack for that 😊
I believe a finger is the proper tool for the job!😂
Missed you guys! glad your back that piece turned out great ...your fan from montana!
Thanks Lisa! This piece took 2 weeks (of course Cindy and I were under the weather for about 4 days), but we're back on track now!
I've never seen a piece like that. You 2 did a great job bringing it back to life, as always. I like that Howards feed n wax. Ive put it on my older pieces and they look so pretty!
Thank you very much!
Another solid Art Deco piece of furniture worth preserving saved. You're becoming more and more professional. I like how you mend and adjust the imperfections with veneer. You cute people did a great job again. By the way, I fill small gaps with a homemade paste made from sawdust and bone glue. However, I do restore more early 19th century antiques and hand polish the surfaces with shellac, which is not necessary for the authenticity of your desk. Maybe you've already decided on a Wagner paint spray system, it's doing me great service.
Thanks Helena! We do have a HomeRight sprayer that we really enjoy using (a lot more in the warmer months), and we hope to try a Wagner in the future!
@@FurnitureWarriors Oh, I didn't remember the HomeRight sprayer....
Thank you for saving it. It's wonderful
We're glad you like it!!
You did such a great job on this! I didn't get a good "before" look, but what I saw looked like it was pretty bad off. I'm so glad you used the reddish stain on it. My favorite, and nobody ever uses it anymore.
Thank you so much Sandy!
I love the way you restore vintage furniture! Good job!
Thanks so much!

so much work but looks stunning
Thanks Nina!
Fantastic!!
Thank you! Cheers!
What a great job on the desk! I wonder if the pull out shelf was originally for a typewriter. Pretty neat. 👍😊
We think it was for a typewriter! Thanks!
Awesome
Thanks Connie!
Great job y’all! As always. One question, and sorry if it’s an amateur one. Why do you put wax over the top coat? I thought the top coat protects it completely. 😀
The topcoat does protect the piece. Putting wax over topcoat gives it a little extra protection and a great sheen! Thanks Tammie!
@@FurnitureWarriors Thanks guys for the answer. Haven’t had the courage to ask any flippers before. 😀
The piece looks great!! You both always do a wonderful job!! Do you have respirators for when you spray or use the heavy chemicals? I didn’t see any on your wishlist.. but I’d be happy to buy you a couple. Thank you for what you do ❤️
We do have respirators. The RZ mask I used when spraying the lacquer is rated for fumes also. Thanks!
@@FurnitureWarriors awesome!! Good stuff 💙
It was hard to tell but I how you had masks on working with bleach and mold.
Yes! Always wear masks with bleach and mold! Thanks Phyllis!
I do wish you could just talk as you go along , not a fan of loud music during restorations.
