Great job man. You don't have to apologize about the P/L (profit/loss) breakdown; call it, "full disclosure" if you wish, but this is a free market society. Be proud of those numbers. Your real fans will understand what you're saying. The ones that don't want to work and don't pay taxes may fault you, but that's jealousy. You do you! You're great at it!
I have the exact same table. Got it with 4 matching chairs for 25 bucks about 25 years ago. 2 kids later its thrashed. You have inspired me to restore this beautiful piece of craftsmanship! Really enjoy your channel keep up the good work.
THANK YOU for putting more restoration videos up on here!! The transformations are lovely but I'm a sucker for making them shine as they were supposed to back in the day.
I just inherited my fathers mid century teak dining table and matching chairs. It’s exactly the same as yours except, obviously. it is teak. It needs redoing but it is nowhere as bad as yours is. You did a great job with this table.
With my two oldest in college we have a lot of young adults in our house at times whether to study, play games, or just to eat. This table size would be ideal! Plus it's really beautiful. Great job, Samuel.
I have this table in teak. It’s an Ansager Mobler and go anywhere from $1500 to $3000. I’m so relieved you refinished it instead of ruining it. Great pieces like this deserve respect. You did a nice job.
The way the wood grain matches shows how high quality this piece is. It would have been expensive in its day. Beautiful restoration job. Thank you for sharing. 😘🇦🇺
I was drawn to painted icees initially but once I really looked at MCM furniture, the natural beauty grabbed me. I have never worked on rosewood. You did a beautiful job!
Honestly, my initial thought was “this is just a plank of wood with 4 legs screwed to the bottom” then you took the top off and extended the leaves and that got me thinking that this could be interesting. The final result is amazing. Great find and great job on the restoration!
Absolutely gorgeous Samuel....And The top where both sides mirror each other in the wood grain is called (match booking) ....very high end quality table you got there my friend...You did amazing work🥰👍
BEAUTY!!! Absolutely gorgoeus...so jealous you found it for such a price...but I would of kept it...absolutely beautiful...you made a fine job...I'm all in for the natural look...and you are right...the craftmanship is perfection...the grain matches once the whole table is extended...a true rarity...and YES those magic markers are truly magical!!! Thank you very much for sharing this upload.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate the compliment. I wish I could have kept it but i don’t have room for everything and im saving so unfortunately I had to let it go
I have almost this exact table! I was so excited to see this! My mother told me my father purchased this in Norway in the 1960's. It's a bit different in that my table is teak and the top is completely smooth when the leaves are extended. I have always dreamed of refinishing it. I LOVED watching this video! Thank you!
Don't call it a comeback it's been here for years!! Freakin FANTASTIC Sam!!! And... $87/hr. is a yearly gross of $180,960K a year at 40/hrs. a week!!!! Boom Shacka Lacka!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Oh it's gorgeous Samuel. I'm looking at the grain and thinking - Donnie Darko twice!! It matches up so fabulously. Beautiful table and absolute bargain. I got an oak dining table for free on fb marketplace. Finish is shot on it. I'm keeping it myself (although I'll never use it extended, it's probably as big as yours - HUGE!) but I've never had a quality dining table and I'm in love. Now just gotta make time to refinish it. Thanks for sharing.
😍 Wow, what a beautyful piece of furniture. Sometimes (maybe often) less is more 🙌🏻 It's the wonderful wood what stands out here, thanks to the simplicity of the table. The grain, the through your work you gave this piece of art a second chance. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻
Just recently discovered your youtube channel and currently binge (sorta) watching past episodes. I'm learning a lot on how to restore MCM furniture. Thanks! Great work on this table!
Dude I really like your videos you get to the point with great editing. Gorgeous peace, great job. I love Danish oil. Great to work with and a great finish that pops the grain. And you can't beat an excellent prophet! ,👍
Thank you UA-cam for recommending your channel. I like that you share the numbers ($) and the time spent on the projects. Next time you sand off a trim please describe how you ensured it was flat and square to the rest of the surface...I did it once and it was a bit crooked.
Beautiful table, nice work! Trivia: the song at about 13:10 minutes in...he is singing in swedish "I'm a lone sailor, far from swedish straits, I'm gonna celebrate x-mas here on Hawaii" (old Swedish sailors song "Sjömansjul på Hawaii"). Who knows, the table may be danish...or swedish, pretty similar style :p
Really beautiful! I'm a mcm fan and have collected a good cache of tables that will be sprucing up by using your videos for inspiration. Not selling...just for my redecorating! Thanks.
That is 100% Rosewood, without a doubt. It offers some of the richest grain you’ll ever see, especially when oiled and waxed. Most of those Danish dining tables were mass produced from Teak, so getting a Rosewood one with continuous veneer right down the line is very rare.
Daaaang! That's a great profit!! And it looks gorgeous!! Thanks for the info & tips; I gotta take the plunge and start selling... Also, are you in San Jose, too??
I really appreciate your channel.. I have a handful of mid century danish, design, pieces of furniture in my home that I want to restore. I started with our round dining table and was told that if I continue to sand I will ruin the veneer . I have water marks, and some spots of discoloration, do you recommend I strip it with a chemical or can I continue to just go with higher sandpaper? I have used 120 so far but there are still a few marks and I’m afraid to go further with any sanding.
I got a bit of a shock when I saw this, because I've got one of these tables! Had it since new. But its currently disassembled in pieces, because the top needs some tlc, like yours but not as bad! FYI, I don't think the leaves on yours were in original condition, as the leaves on mine are in v.g.c. and have a shine/sheen to them. I was going to have a go at the 'renno' myself, but after watching this, I'm scared to now! 🙄 Perhaps I should get someone who knows what they are doing?🤑Any thoughts gratefully received👍
Thank you so much for the compliment. It’s really jut that hard but if you want it to look better just try using some restorafinish and 0000 steel wool
If you come into stains of any kind, you also can use sillic acid, I think that what ya call it, lol Asillic? Anyways you leave it on according to directions. Must wash off with lots of water. It bleaches out the stains. But you MUST use it on the whole top not one spot. If that helps in the future.
Hi. I have a dining room table and chairs that I want to paint. It has never been refinished. It looks like it did when it was originally purchased from a furniture store. Minus a bit of wear and tear. It was as given to me about 25 years ago. It’s in good shape. I will have to do some sanding but not a lot. It’s heavily varnished and is the ugly lighter brown colored wood that was popular in the 90’s. It has a lot of life left. The legs are 3” in diameter and the table is pretty heavy. The finish is not peeling . Should I strip it before I paint it? Just looking for advice. Thanks
On second thought, you don’t have to strip down if you’re just going to paint. A light sanding and filling of any scratches or gouges and it should be fine.
Can I ask what your best selling techniques are? As in do you sell local, Facebook marketplace, online, word of mouth? Where do you suggest starting if I’m a complete beginner?
I started out selling on Facebook marketplace and Craigslist, offer up and any other local selling platforms. Instagram is a good one as well cause you can keep a portfolio of stuff you’ve done and get potential clients from there as well
It looked like the veneer was loose in a few places when you were touching up with the marker, but did see that you glued those areas...maybe you did that off camera?
Замечательный простой стол, но меня не удивляет, что дополнительная часть выдвижной столешницы редко использовалась. Эти крылья при выдвижении очень капризны к малейшему перекосу. Плохо держат нагрузку и если при большом застолье поставить тяжёлое блюдо или облокотиться на этот край - можно устроить катастрофу :)
Thank you so much. The leaves are actually very sturdy on this design. As you put downward pressure of the leaves, the supports for the put upward pressure on a fixed brace in the middle. Super solid
It turned out beautiful. Thank you for not painting it. So many people jump to paint furniture, without seeing the beauty of the natural wood.
Thank you. If I can restore and save the wood, I prefer that.
@@CedarPineDesigns You're welcome.
I agree

Thank you so much Amy. Wood grain is definitely the way to go with MCM but a bit of paint never hurt
What a beautiful table!!
Thank you! 😊
That’s a beautiful table!
Thank you brother
Such a beautiful table. And a steal at $800, in my opinion. I love the restoration, never boring to me. 😊
Agreed when you're watching a pro work like this it's interesting.

That’s exactly how I feel. It was unwanted and dusty. The guy had it sitting on the side of his house under a tarp.
Just gorgeous. I love it.

Man, you scored! Just found one of these in Teak, mine is beautiful, but the Rosewood is amazing ❤
Very nice! I have a teak one just haven’t had a chance to get to it yet
What an absolutely gorgeous piece! Your customer got a great deal as well, I’d have gladly paid $1500 for it. Wow!

Thanks 🔥
Where do you advertise your pieces?? I absolutely love this table!!
Thank you so much. I do Facebook and Craigslist but I also have a little list of clients that I show stuff to and that’s how I sold this table
That is 100% Rosewood, without a doubt. It offers some of the richest grain you’ll ever see, especially when oiled and waxed. Most of those Danish dining tables were mass produced from Teak, so getting a Rosewood one with continuous veneer right down the line is very rare.
Thank you. I was thinking the same thing. I always see these tables in a teak but never rosewood.
That is teak. The piece is designed by Andreson from Damark, beautiful one.
By the way, this piece should worth around 2000-3000
Thank you. I have another I’m working on
Daaaang! That's a great profit!! And it looks gorgeous!!
Thanks for the info & tips; I gotta take the plunge and start selling...
Also, are you in San Jose, too??
Thank you 🙏 You can do it! Just start. And yes, I’m in San Jose
Please try Odies oil!!! Dries to a hard luster finish!!

Do not sand to much. Try a chemical called oxalis acid and remember to not use it on spots but rather the whole surface.

Absolutely beautiful table.
You did a great job.
Not a fan of the chipmunk music though. 🙂
Thank you so much. The music isn’t really going to continue on my content much

Is that an orbital or random orbital sander? :)
It’s a random orbital as it rotates and vibrates in small random directions
If you come into stains of any kind, you also can use sillic acid, I think that what ya call it, lol Asillic? Anyways you leave it on according to directions. Must wash off with lots of water. It bleaches out the stains. But you MUST use it on the whole top not one spot. If that helps in the future.
I’ve heard of that and have wanted to try using it. I believe it’s oxalic acid. I’m glad you brought up not spot using it. Good to know

Thank you so much. I actually just subscribed to a music platform to have a verity of music.
Hi. I have a dining room table and chairs that I want to paint. It has never been refinished. It looks like it did when it was originally purchased from a furniture store. Minus a bit of wear and tear. It was as given to me about 25 years ago. It’s in good shape. I will have to do some sanding but not a lot. It’s heavily varnished and is the ugly lighter brown colored wood that was popular in the 90’s. It has a lot of life left. The legs are 3” in diameter and the table is pretty heavy. The finish is not peeling . Should I strip it before I paint it? Just looking for advice. Thanks
It's probably best to strip it first. You might not be able to get a good finish without stripping it.
@@CedarPineDesigns thanks
On second thought, you don’t have to strip down if you’re just going to paint. A light sanding and filling of any scratches or gouges and it should be fine.
👍
Top is veneer?
Yes. Over solid wood
Nice job. The "music" was very annoying though.
Thank you. I try to keep a happy medium with the music. Some like it, some don’t.
@@CedarPineDesigns I agree with BigRed. You don't need the music. Like good furniture, sometimes less is more. Nice work.
@@gruns914 I’ll keep that in mind
This was sold by Scan Design. It came with a set of beautiful yet very fragile chairs.

It looked like the veneer was loose in a few places when you were touching up with the marker, but did see that you glued those areas...maybe you did that off camera?
It wasn’t loose but rather where the sander removed a bit of the veneer
