      Phillips screws are barely modern. If he's restoring and repainting the whole thing why would he "weather" anything? And yes paint a highly worn surface like a screw in the center of the handle so the paint can wear away and flake off and look bad. Go grab something and restore it yourself if you think you have the right idea, make some videos.

  • @stormkhan4250
    @stormkhan4250 4 роки тому +5

    Nice little restore. Just a note but to be a bit more sympathetic to the restoration you should have used flat head screws instead in keeping with the style of the item from when it was made. You could also have done away with screws for the drawer sides by simply gluing the sides together. Modern wood glues are quite strong.

    I'm having a really hard time deciding whether or not this is supposed to be a parody or not. The end result is kinda godawful, and you didn't even really restore it, you just kinda cleaned it up. The handle actually looks worse with the screw, and the sticker is ridiculous. Then again, there are some aspects that make it seem like you're not even trying to take this seriously, but I'm just not sure.
