  • I bought this table a few years ago off Facebook marketplace and it's been in the garage ever since, so I thought it was time to see what lies beneath the paint.

    The side inlay to match the existing stripes was a master stroke. Well done lads!

    I wanted to like this, but it just didn't get there. I kind of expected that the iron base and table trim would be restored. Instead, the base was painted, and the trim discarded. The underside of the table was left untouched and messy. The lion head wasn't needed and added nothing to the piece. It just doesn't work for me.

      Hiya mary, yes we wanted to transform the table into something new rather then Restore it to its original look. But I do see your point, working on my next video now and it will be 100% restoration style.

    You both have done amazing work transforming that old table in to a master piece. Good work on the stripping and respraying the metal work. Nice CNC work on the lions head and the mixing of the black and gold dies.The finish is out of this world, very nice work'
    As always a great video, Take care

    Sorry, but why did you experiment with the lion on this spectacular and beautiful wood? I really wished you had done the lion on another piece with beautiful grain without the contrasting inlays. I really wish!
    Anyway. The new edging was beautiful. You handle the hand plainer as a professional which I admire. I will try another of your videos before I make a decision on whether to subscribe or not.

      Thank you Helena. Yes I see most people have a love/ hate relationship with the lion. I think going forward I will focus more on purely restoring projects that have nice grain such as this table.

    I must admit the lion is not my cuppa tea but I appreciate the skill involved. I wonder what the original use of this table was as it looks like something you would find in a public house.

    I think it is really gorgeous just wish the lion wasnt there, i love animals especially big cats i just couldnt feel the vibe,
    Maybe for like a man cave by the bar or gaming area, i could definitely see it fitting in there!!
    I guess because i was born on the side of a mountain in KY theres just nothing more beautiful than natural wood grain to me si maybe im just bias lol, either way you did a great job!

      Thank you so much, yes I actually agree. Am learning with every project and I find the design the hardest part. Some projects I think I'm overdoing it a little.

    Hi there, great video. Would love to know more about the oil applicator and handle for it. The thing that holds onto the white pad. I assume it’s a white scotchbrite pad?

    • @UpcycleFurnitureFinds
      @UpcycleFurnitureFinds  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi mate, ye it's a hook and loop sanding pad and none abrasive pad very similar to a scotchbrite pad. A bit finer I think but works great.

      @@UpcycleFurnitureFinds plain wood with an oil finish would have been better. For sure it would appeal to a wider audience.
      The wood already contrasts well with the cast iron, since the finished wood is modern and the cast iron looks antique. The lion is just an eyesore, doesnt fit with anything
