    I like that you didn’t just stain and call it done. You took a little time concealing the damaged areas. I only wish I could go back in time and redo my old refinishing projects and incorporate what I have learned from watching you.

    Believe it or not, that was an excellent purchase. I recognized that manufacture. The company has been making tables for a very long time. These tables are mid-Century with a slight traditional feel to them. They are quite smart looking. You did a super job restoring them. Carol from California

    These were definitely worth picking up. They looked great after you finished with them. The thing I don't like about factory finishes is that they usually hide the grain and look too bland and uniform. I've found they always look much better once they've been restored with more natural finishes. They seemed to pass final inspection too🐿. It's always nice to have some furry interactions somewhere in the video.

    Really baffled why a company would spend the money on walnut, only to hide it under a light color finish, when a cheeper light colored wood could be used.

    The side that was lighter probably faced a window and was bleached out by the sun.

    Fantastic job, apparently the squirrel approves of your walnut and his!

    Beautiful tables. I’m always impressed when you’re able to match the grain with with just stain and a paint brush.

    Much improved! The squirrel was just looking for oak to put the acorn back home.

    A uniform color is much higher end looking!! So glad you corrected the shade. And I like the drawer pulls, they're a nod to the time but kind of classy.
