    Wow! That is beautiful. I recently decided to start restoring furniture. My first piece is a vintage oak dresser, thank goodness no veneer. lol I have another piece, a small vintage side table that has swelling on a corner. It has veneer where it’s swelled, but the actual edges are solid wood. If I may, I’d like to ask a question about how you fixed your table. I saw that you added a bit of water to the glue. Since particle board reacts to water, would using the wood glue without water make a better fix so you wouldn’t need to use filler afterwards? Or am I just completely uneducated because I am definitely not an expert by any means, I was just curious. Thank you for sharing your videos with us, your restorations are beautiful 💖

    • @toneandteak
      @toneandteak 15 днів тому

      Thank you! The reason I thinned the glue out with some water is because the syringe was so small that it wouldn't be possible to get straight glue through. I only used a little bit to get it thin enough. It would definitely be better to use straight glue, but because of how thin the gap was, only that small syringe would work. That being said, with that small amount of water mixed into the glue, and the clamping force of it, I don't expect it to cause any problems. The reason I had to use the filler is that even with the chipboard dug out, and the veneer glued and clamped down, it still wasn't perfectly flush with the edge trim, so I used the filler to even it out :)

    • @toneandteak
      @toneandteak 18 днів тому

      Thank you! If there is no veneer repairs needed I would usually skip that shellac stage. You can just use the Scandinavian Oil alone, but for pieces that might see more water spills and hard wear and tear, I like to add the poly on top as well. I sold this one, but I have an identical one of my own, and another one to refinish at some point too. It never ends!

  • @portialipton

    I've never seen teak go so red like that. Was it a natural tone or some colour from the Scandinavian stuff? Or is Australian teak just really red?

    • @toneandteak
      @toneandteak 18 днів тому

      It's actually a bit of a mystery... I thought the same as you, and I actually suspect it may be a Blackbean table (which is another common native wood used on MCM furniture here). I had a few different people look at the table in person and online and more people concluded it was Teak than other species so who knows!

    • @toneandteak
      @toneandteak 16 днів тому

      @@lindaoharris In person it does appear much more along the lines of teak's brownish/orange, but it still is undoubtedly a bit darker than normal. If it is indeed Teak, one wood specialist told me that it may have been very old heartwood, which would be darker/older than most teak veneer scene in MCM furniture. I still personally think it may be Blackbean though!
