I am a retired Architect Interior Designer and from your knowledge of repair and various furniture period constructions I assume you may be European. In Canada and the US most of our very best craftsmen are like you and the best ones i have known and used all have a European background and training, In my long experience they are very knowledgeable about their craft and most often grew up learning it from other family members Its not just in your trade its in most of the building trades also like brick laying etc etc.. I love watching your craftsmanship and the patient way you work.. At 85 now i have worked with and known many like yourself and can appreciate your talent and craftsmanship. BRAVO....will continue watching your interesting and educational videos..
Yes, his knowledge and craftsmanship is amazing plus he has a good sense of humor! He is in Estonia, at least that is what I have gathered from watching his other videos.
Now I understand why professional antique and vintage restoration can be expensive.......and worth EVERY penny! Your attention to detail is fantastic....a true artist at work.
I think you should rename your enterprise 'Lazarus Restorations' - you've certainly brought that table back to life. Amazing work and proof that one can never have too many clamps. Bravo.
Ах, какой столик - классный, практичный, компактный, раздвижной, на все случаи жизни и такой красавчик! Как новенький! Многое мастер убрал, заменил, подправил, покрасил, отлакировал, отшлифовал и - "получите, распишитесь! " Волшебник, кудесник, всё как в сказке! Спасибо за видео, очень интересно видеть весь процесс - "от" и "до"! 👍👍👍👍👍💯💖💥
At first glance, it didn’t seem worth the time and effort, but you made that into a show piece. You always seem to see possibilities where I see none. Beautiful!
Always a pleasure to see how old things are valued and experienced a "rebirth". There is a master at work, with equipment better than any hardware store 😁
This was perfect as a vanity desk for me. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMAlHv7-BBWMrPRm5-uEoD6rtdT7SG2Qr Especially the glossy finish. Easy to cleanI was looking for something that wasn't the traditional white and with more of a modern feel. This fit the bill beautifully. I put it together with no problems, by myself in under an hour.Make sure you double check where you place the drawer tracks before screwing down. I had one track that needed to be aligned with different holes than the rest.
Brilliant workmanship. You seem to always get the colour mixing spot on which itself is an art plus the fact that the wrong colour stain could spoil the piece. Keep the videos coming.
You do absolutely beautiful work. I use to love playing around with trying to restore older furniture. But nothing like you do. I could watch these videos all day. Thank you for making old things look beautiful again.
You never cease to dazzle me with your artistry and skill. I also appreciate your informative text as the project evolves and I love that you don’t just jabber!
These tables are the kind I grew up around. So seeing this restored really made my heart happy. This is the kind of table I’ve wanted the last 20 years and could never find. Fabulous restoration! 💜
"In other news, markets worldwide report a massive shortage of Bessey edge clamps, following a routine purchase by AT Restorations..." ;) I really enjoy this and your other videos - thanks so much.
It’s so helpful that you explain why you choose the stain you do. As someone who only does sporadic projects it’s hard to gain personal experience with all the different products out there. Stain, varnish, gel stains etc. The choices can become a research project in itself. I appreciate all the learning I’ve found on this channel. Thank you!
My grandmother had an unremarkable kitchen table. She had it restored, which I thought was ridiculous. Boy was I wrong, I wish I had it today. You're restoring memories, not just furniture.
Прекрасно! Мало мастеров которые восстанавливают вещь в первоначальном виде авторской задумки, открывая природную красоту материала. В основном наблюдала шпаклёвку и замазывание краской поверхностей. И вещь превращалась в Квазимодо! Браво, Мастер!
When I saw the headline I said this I have to say it is so satisfying and interesting to watch somebody create and restore things that badly need to be fixed my hats off to you loved every minute of it😊👍
I certainly hope you got the "friends & family" discount when buying all those clamps!! 😳🤣 Every project you do is always done with such care. They look *simply beautiful* when finished. 👏👏
Your channel is very educational. I really enjoy every video and learn from them all. As a child I watched my father woodworking and it fascinated me. I wanted to do this! Unfortunately, he passed away when I was 13. Maybe I would have been able to learn from him. I'm older now and I wish I didn't let my circumstance derail me!
Turned out beautiful, as I expected it would. I have to call you the master of clampster! Seems there are never enough clamps but you have more and so many types than I've seen before!
Gorgeous!!! I liked the stain you put on much better than the original color! I agree with another viewer that your clamps are also a work of art like your restorations!! Super impressive!
Thankfully you have as many clamps as you do. Clamp heaven but you do such great work. Did realize that veneer is on so many different furniture items though. Getting my education is furniture restore. You have a great day
I think I’m starting to understand what restoration is really about. It is having knowledge to take the bad out and put new in. But it is more so about making that new to look old like the rest of the piece. It’s kind of like full circle. Beautiful as always. Thanks for sharing. 🤟🏼🤍
Great job, again. It's so satisfying to watch you restore furniture. You have 'hooked' me. I've subscribed. Have a great Saturday. Thanks for the entertainment and instructional education.

The veneer work is impressive. I am slowly becoming a convert.

😆
I agree! "Lazarus Restorations"
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I wish you could restore my old wood furniture🙃❤️
Or, apparently, too many scraps of protective wood!
This table looks excellent with the new leaves installed. I love your videos.

I've been woodworking for 40 years and I learn something from every one of your videos. Thank you!!
Wow, thanks!
At first glance, it didn’t seem worth the time and effort, but you made that into a show piece. You always seem to see possibilities where I see none. Beautiful!
I am the 2 percent of the population that enjoys watching this type of video because it is relaxing
You are definitely a master craftsman. Such a beautiful restoration of the “leafed” table.
I really enjoyed re-watching your restoration of that old table.
My Favourite AT ,love watching him, he is fantastic.
Mr. AT Restoration you are great at what you do.
Always a pleasure to see how old things are valued and experienced a "rebirth".
There is a master at work, with equipment better than any hardware store 😁
There is something relaxing and compeling watching you bring objects back to their beauty! Keep up the good work.
It turned out beautiful. The laminate and stain you chose really made it beautiful.
I love that you make these like new again. I can imagine how proud someone must have been to have that in their home. Now too.

The true love for the clamps xxx
I love how meticulous and detail-oriented you are. Brilliant restoration!
Hope we choose to go this route more often. There's no need to throw out perfectly good bones, it's so wasteful. Thank you for sharing your work!
Серединка у таких столов раскладная была (обе части крепились друг к другу) и пряталась в сам стол.
У вас золотые руки!
Вот и мне сдается, что никакой это не американец.
I never would have thought it would look that good! I’m so impressed!!!!!
Simple but beautiful design.Great restoration.
What a rescue! Impressive! Congratulations!
Your skills creating missing table leaves is quite impressive. Fantastic job! 😊
Мастер-"Золотые руки"! Молодец! Дар от Бога.
that clampwork is tremendous
Brilliant workmanship. You seem to always get the colour mixing spot on which itself is an art plus the fact that the wrong colour stain could spoil the piece. Keep the videos coming.
Sometimes choosing the colour is the hardest part, because of the different lighting and different materials.
You have the most awesome tools as well as spectacular talent.
You do absolutely beautiful work. I use to love playing around with trying to restore older furniture. But nothing like you do. I could watch these videos all day. Thank you for making old things look beautiful again.
Beautiful!! I am in love and envy with your clamp collection!!
You never cease to dazzle me with your artistry and skill. I also appreciate your informative text as the project evolves and I love that you don’t just jabber!
And, I knew if anyone could restore it... It would be you. Your knowledge and ability is awesome.
These tables are the kind I grew up around. So seeing this restored really made my heart happy. This is the kind of table I’ve wanted the last 20 years and could never find. Fabulous restoration! 💜
Oh well done you! You literally made a silk purse our of a sow’s ear. Fabulous. 👏👏👏
The light color was beautiful on this table…

Was dieser Mann alles macht und kann ist einfach nur der Hammer!!! Ein Künstler!!!

Thomas Johnson Antique Furniture Restoration is another good channel to learn from if you're interested.
My grandmother had an unremarkable kitchen table. She had it restored, which I thought was ridiculous. Boy was I wrong, I wish I had it today. You're restoring memories, not just furniture.
Прекрасно!

Wow, thank you!
Woodworking… you can never have too many clamps! 😉 excellent job
I certainly hope you got the "friends & family" discount when buying all those clamps!! 😳🤣
Every project you do is always done with such care. They look *simply beautiful* when finished. 👏👏
I would be proud to have that beautiful table in my house!
Me and my 4 year old son love ur channel, your craftsmanship is astounding!
A very handsome table. Most of the time, there's just me, but occasionally I need to seat 8. Just perfect.
Ship of Theseus comes to mind
Your channel is very educational. I really enjoy every video and learn from them all. As a child I watched my father woodworking and it fascinated me. I wanted to do this! Unfortunately, he passed away when I was 13. Maybe I would have been able to learn from him. I'm older now and I wish I didn't let my circumstance derail me!
I don’t know anything about furniture building and repair. But I know what I like and you do beautiful work thank you! ❤️🌵🇺🇸
Спасибо! В ваших работах столько уважения к мастерам из прошлого! ❤️
Turned out beautiful, as I expected it would. I have to call you the master of clampster! Seems there are never enough clamps but you have more and so many types than I've seen before!
Gorgeous!!! I liked the stain you put on much better than the original color! I agree with another viewer that your clamps are also a work of art like your restorations!! Super impressive!

You do such beautiful work. Thank you for sharing your talent with us all.
2:22 those are some famous lines "I make new ones" - my mechanic 😁
