Thank you for the feature, Insider! :)
Oh i thought youre like an older man whos normally featured in these kind of restoration videos. But hi there and great work!
@modernmakeover great job
The narration completely ruins the video. Every time I wanted to hear the natural sounds of the tools, sanding, scraping, etc, the voice over comes in to add nothing of value to the video.
That’s why you should go to his channel :)
Well, sometimes you have to stop and think.. Restoration stands for restoring, not remaking.
Great job, you saved that dresser's life!
weird choice to use such narrow veneer strips, and the old veneer would have probably come off easier with water plus heat instead of just heat, since it's most likely hide or bone glue (gelatine). soak it in water first, then steam it with a wet rag and clothes iron. alternatively, if you want to crack open a hide/bone clue joint dry by utilizing its brittleness, it helps a lot to let some drops of 95%+ ethanol soak into the joint, that causes the glue to crack a lot easier (especially old glue joints) while not weakening the wood - though of course it does damage most wood finishes, so it needs to be applied very sparingly. that's what violin makers like myself use to open violins or crack off their fingerboards (small drops of alcohol on a butter knife used as a wedge).
That is a very cool old dresser, but I think he ruined it with those veneer strips. The top did not look good at all.
@@snakedoktor6020 they looked perfect
How many times does she want to say Andy...
im so early lol amazing restoration, i wish more people could get into this type of hobby. Let's reuse more and repair as much as possible, it's def a good help to our environment. 💚
Not a fan of the black handles
Agree, should've stick to the original. Then again, the channel name is makeover not restoration.
Awesome step by step narration. Cool video and process.
The fact that this dresser is near 100 years old and in pretty good condition just amazes me.
yea but its worth no more then 50 bucks.
its ugly af tho
@@R3RS2024 I’d say a $50 item that lasts 100 years is a pretty good value.
I am feeling very relaxed and relieved after watching your masterpiece, and I can sleep so much better! 😌😍
The stain they used on top is such an ugly color 😬
Nice work! We love a good restoration! 👊
I’m not surprised there’s stripping in Barewood. This place is the wildest on the East Coast.
Would have looked better without the veneer.
It’s cool you’re allowed to be wrong
His Name is Andy!
Andy Andy Andy .........
Andy ........
Andy Andy ..... Andy Andy
:)
I love watching things like this.
It came out stunning!
Andy's channel is very entertaining and he really knows what he is doing
He did an amazing job!
That's a 5 in one not putty knife two completely different tools
Why is this so satisfying
Wait my whole life is a lie, they just attach those stuff to a normal piece of wood.
I seen this on his actual channel just last week
I find this kind of stuff satisfying.
I have my Mema’s cedar chest from years ago that has water damage on the top veneer . Can’t find anyone to fix it
I always thought that veneer was a poor quality product.
Veneer is a thin strip of high quality wood, usually teak, mahogany, or walnut. It is traditionally placed on top of lower quality woods like pine or birch. Newer pieces sometimes use cheaper base materials like particle board, which are more difficult to restore and less structurally sound.
Watching from Sindh ❤️
I love 1920s
I stopped watching the video when I saw edge veneer being used on a surface. It tells me of one thing - the person doing it is not a professional. Which raises the question - why do you bother making a video featuring an amateur???
How do we know it was not by design
He does it for a living, he's literally a professional.
everyone has to start at something. If you think that making something once/few times and expect it to be perfect/done professionaly. Well, what a world you live in, eyh?
Dear narrator, thank you for telling us what we can already see and what's so obvious and you do not have to be saying at all.
but...thats what a narrator does, they narrate and here she has the job to narrate what the video shows. Why even make an effort to write such a stupid comment. Did it ever cross your mind that not everyone has a hive brain so everyone knows exactly every time, everywhere and experience everything together and know the same knowledge from the get go to the same time? well apparently not.
@@AngelBlood97 Wow… someone came out swingin’! Pretty sure we all know what a narrator does. Maybe give the commenter a break for having an opinion about how narrators should sound?
furniture andy
I wonder what this guys name is?
Wood never dies...
Should’ve kept that drawing tho
Cool 😀
That gray stain is hideous.
Вот что получается, когда у человека откуда надо руки растут
Everything need to be creative and skill
Nothing's wouldn't happen without that
Whos doing the restoration again? I didnt hear her the first 20 times
Allen, I think
Siuuuuuuu
Top stain meh
Isn't this a reupload?
Nice job, but I think it's more repairing than restoring
Didn't use Ramen noodles, boooooo!
this is pro work no question. BUT sorry for my honest opinion: you have to see that this furniture is old, not new. Now it looks like fresh from the factory - or even worse: from IKEA. target completely missed. I also restore old cars, especially the interior of cars. Here the goal is always: Original Condition, and not according to whim. This furniture doesn't look like 100 years old. it`s like brandnew. history furniture like this always loses its soul if you don't do it the right way. you can compare it easily by stopping the video at 05:12 - then compare it.

.. why not use a full sheet of veneer instead of edge banding strips?
