    I really know nothing about restoration or woodworking, although I find myself fascinated by it. I loved this video, not only the amount of knowledge and attention to detail you displayed, incredibly, but also the actual filming, the sounds, it was so calming, it felt like art in of itself. Lovely.

      Más que eso...un trabajo doble valorado..
      ..
      Porque en si lleva mérito cuando se hace con material nuevo... aquí es doble porque primero hay que desmantelar,limpiar renovar...y lo digo porque aunque mi profesión es otra .. que también es de arreglar (cabello) no se iguala con el desgaste físico y mental que hay que invertir...pero cuando le gusta a uno ,es un deleite el mirar de lo que es uno capaz de hacer....

      @@cocinandoconlatia7202 I second that. (Just wrote something to that effect in a comment.) This channel - and this gentleman's work - is a delight, for the soul. It's not the "I bought this dresser for $40 and sold it for $550!," but about appreciation for the furniture, the craft and love that was put into them, the apprectation for the materials, the history... Not the "Me! Me! Me! Look, this is how you can make $500 from a shitty old art deco vanity!" (Ugh.) It's inspirational.

    Very nice restoration! A tip on one of your tools: The first table saw sled I ever made, I had a habit of hooking my thumb over the fence like that. One day, I unknowingly hooked it too close to where the blade exits. I didn't cut it off, but came so close I wondered why I didn't. From that day on, every sled I make, I always glue a block of wood there, and cut through it as needed. It's not a stop for the blade, but for my thumb sliding farther than I realize toward the blade path.

    Initially, I though: "why is he bothering?". But as the video progressed, it became increasingly apparent. What started out as an old, rusted utilitarian object turned out, under your skillful hands, as a beautifully restored high-end decorative accessory. Beautiful job. Congratulations. Oh yes. Absolutely loved the choice of the maple for the steps and top. Really cool.

      На английском ТВ (не помню названия программы) была великолепная передача про реставрацию.
      Женщина приходила на свалку, куда свозили всё ненужное и
      отбирала приглянувшиеся ей вещи на реставрацию.
      Результат реставрации всегда был поразительным и НЕОЖИДАННЫМ по стилю и качеству.
      Она продавала обновлённые вещи и обязательно писала, сколько денег выручила с каждой вещи.

    I love watching stain being applied to wood and bringing out the grain pattern. What species of wood did you use? Cheers!

      Someone else said maple but it looks like mahogany to me.

    With that many paint colors removed, I wonder how many people used/sat on that step stool over the decades. Not mention the conversations. 👍👍 Now many more years of service to come.

    Send those paint splattered wooden steps in as an entry for the "Turner Prize" bound to win :)

    I appreciate using the belt sander. Too many times in these videos they hand sand which is alright, but if you have the tools use them. On an aside, if you have a grinder don't use a file unnecessarily.

    Beautiful work. Loved the raw metal brazing. Nice choice of stain as well. Brought out the beauty of the functionalism. Simple and gorgeous. 🎉

    Шлифовать поверхность доски после фрезера необязательно. Шершавая поверхность ступеньки - более устойчивое положение ноги !

    Fantastic restoration of a useful addition for short people with tall cupboards.

    you have like every tool I could ever imagine. What is the total cost of all your tools? And what is that sanding bar thing called?

    Unfortunately, the people that like to restore always forget to do one crucial thing.
    And that is, the rust is still there, inside, and it hasn't been cleaned at all.
    For example, you can see in all of the videos where people restore rusty bikes, they forget, or maybe are not aware, that the bike is actually completely rusted inside as well.
    And what that mean is that after a while, the weak points, especially at the joints, will give away from the inside.
    And you can guess what could happen along with that..
    I saw that once, where the bike was restored, freshly painted, but during the drive the bike frame broke in the middle bottom, and the dark brown wet rusty chips started to come out.
    And yes, the driver was injured..

    Loved your video, forwarded to my brother soon to retire. He probably has all the tools you used. Fun to watch. Thanks

    Would have been interesting to see how it might have turned out had you "restored" the wooden steps. Or at least stripped away the layers of paint to show what that old wood looked like. Nevertheless, beautiful job.

      I agree. I was sad to see the old wood gone. 😔
