I hope the younger generation is watching your restoration. So they can appreciate what real talent, knowledge and skill it takes to create an heirloom. Instead of the IKEA way of throw away furniture. Craftsman like you are an important part of our society.
It is a shame I can only give you one thumbs up on this project. It easily deserves three ;)
A masterclass in finishing wood the right way. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us.
Lovely job! That student can enjoy that desk for many decades and I'm glad she was willing to make the investment in properly restoring it.
The lady student will have tears in her eyes when she sits down to use the desk again . Fantastic knowledge and skill brought this project to this conclusion.
Mr. Johnson's "pretty good" is better than 99.9% of us regular folks could possibly do.
Your dog is so inquisitive. Like it knows exactly what’s going on and checks your progress the same way you do
I am in awe of your work and attention to detail. I can’t help but compare other furniture restorers to you.
Pretty good is an understatement. Fabulous! May she enjoy her desk until she gives it to the next generation!
The quality of your work and calm demeanor leaves me speechless.
They must have cried when they saw what a fantastic job you did. Outstanding.
Another beautiful job. Another client over the moon. Another annoying emoji ♥ Seeing Ella makes my day.
SO MUCH WORK AND SO WORTH IT, TOM!!!
I've always admired a good finish on a wood project. Learning from you is fun.
I'm surprised you only put 20 hours into that. It turned out beautifully. I'll bet this student's great grandchildren will studying at this desk in the future. I really like the style of this desk.
Thomas that is a very sympathetic repair end result looks amazing but we have come to expect nothing less from you so much care and attention to detail is second to none and it shows in the end result. 😀👍
Turned out great, thanks for showing us. Glad to see the dog is keeping a sharp eye out on your work.
I had completely forgotten about this Spinet desk, and came in this morning to find Part 2! and was elated! ( I'll blame it on age. I'm pushing 80!) I am always in awe in some of the things that can happen. like those two boards not drying and the pains you take to make sure that are done correctly. I can see where a lot of "do it yourselfer's" would have just gone ahead and tried to finish the project with out them drying properly before the next coat. Patience is a virtue, that is in short supply with today's generations. So nice to see you at your craft, I always come away picking up on something I might use myself in the future, that I did not know. thanks again for sharing, and once again for beautiful video camera work. superb!!

"....it looks pretty good...." you say?
I love how your side kick checks out the pieces as you are checking them out.
