Thanks!
Another option is to make a feature out of the holes. For instance make them square and fill with a small square of veneer. It would look like the top had been pegged to the bottom in some way and would look like it was an intentional part of the design.
Imperfections make this beautiful table, in my opinion, perfect👍🏼🏴
The rain on his shed is so soothing
A beautiful table! You did what was needed to bring it back to its modernist glory.
Love the rain in the video. Extra bonus.😊
Another option you could still do which would fit the mid century aesthetic is to inlay a bow shaped patch in a different colored wood over each hole, then it would look original to the piece as there are other MCM pieces with them.
These Danish surfboard tables are such a beautiful, classic design. It’s almost unthinkable that somebody would drill through the tabletop to put a bunch of totally unnecessary bolts in it, but I must admit that I’ve seen worse. A great result in any case.
You did a beautiful job disguising the damage. Even the staging was satisfying. I always love hearing the birds in the background, this time it was the rain capturing the atmosphere.
What a gorgeous table. Absolutely, restored it to look soooo much better. In the US, I've seen furniture refinishers use the sanding dust, mix it with wood glue cover the dowels or scratches smoothly let it dry an sand it. That process seems to blend in with the natural wood tones of the wood and is unnoticeable. Just a suggestion for another time 😉! Awesome job and video! Looks beautiful! 😊❤
What a lovely job you did in fixing that poor coffee table,Otis wonderful and Iwould be proud to have it in my home.
If I were you, I might have drilled matching holes in the other end of the table, and then maybe on the rails or legs somewhere to make it a feature? It came out lovely either way.
Just a suggestion to do close-ups of problem areas in the final pics. These close-ups reveal that the refinisher’s fix may or may not be perfect, but it is good enough.
Comedy Gold with the sponge! It made me laugh. Hearing the rain while watching you stain was Oddly Pleasing! Great Restoration!
An inlaid brass stripe down the center lengthwise would have been a nice design detail that also covered the holes. Perhaps some matching brass leg caps to complete the look & add value.
Wow! Great Job!! I’m sure you heard this before but I much prefer the sounds of the wood working and the birds to any of the “canned” music. Overall I am impressed!
Snyggt! Jag förstår inte hur nån kan få för sig att bulta fast träskivor på det sättet! 😂.
Very nice!
The legs reminded me of the piece in your "Diamond in the rough" video, I don't know if I felt like them just because they're different or it's just such a beautiful design element. I can't believe they drilled those enormous holes and placed those bolts in them. Totally destroyed the look of such a beautiful table. Thank goodness you were able to make it well again!
Veramente un gran bel lavoro 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
