    I've been alternating watching all the videos with getting my housework and other projects done today. I admire that, between highly complex pieces, and simpler pieces, every one of you treats your trash with respect, and give these poor pieces all of your skill and attention to detail. proving they were never really trash to begin with. thanks for a lovely day well spent.

    We grew up calling that style "Danish Modern". My mother had an almost exact table. The tables she had did not have the lower shelf. I was astounded that the huge black stain came out. Great restoration!

    Hello, I would like to thank you for your amazing video on restoring the old table. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that this table was made many years ago in my country. Your meticulous work and the care you took in restoring it truly touched me. It was incredible to see how you managed to return the table to its original condition and preserve its value. Thank you so much for your effort and for taking such wonderful care of these old pieces. Your work is inspiring, and I deeply appreciate it. I wish you much success in your future restorations and look forward to more of your videos.

    @aspiringteenchefscooking2001 29 днів тому +1

    I think the brass rods and rope will add some stability. Those bolts they use always come loose. Forever tightening them. The brass and rope may take out some of the micro-wiggle (new word) and keep the nuts from loosening so often.

    The restoration on that table was fantastic, as far as the wood pieces went. The rope shelf? I would look at that and say "Anything I want to put there is going to fall through". A tight weave would have made a great shelf.
