Thank-you Mr Johnson for helping all of us get our furniture looking pretty good!

I love these videos too! Life-savers in these dark political times.

Oh my gosh. I love your work and watching the door itself transform was amazing but the mouldings didnt seem worth the scraping, sanding, treatment....you made 4 so i think making the other pieces of moulding wouldn't have been cheating as the rest of the door remained true. Your attention to detail is 100% wow!

Thank you for providing measurements and weights in both US units and the metric system. 👍

Such a difficult job. Well done!

Thanks

Very helpful.

What a beautiful restoration of this handy little table!

Awesome hints!! Love it!

В РОССИИ это называется просто СУНДУК , но у нас сундуки в разы ЛУЧШЕ ! Поднимите историю РУССКОГО СУНДУКА !

Thanks Tom, I enjoyed this video very much.

It’s obvious that one of your many attributes is patience, what a difficult job well done! Jim k.

Smart dog!

So much admiration for the calm methodical way you work Mr Johnson. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. Interesting coincidence that I came across ‘Gilboys’ only yesterday when looking up refinishing of an Ercol coffee table and here, the very next day, I see you using their wax! Best wishes Nesta, UK

A relatively inexpensive CNC might have made that veneer patch quicker and easier. There may be someone local with the expertise to convert to the trace to DXF and laser or CNC the veneer.

Thomas takes what many would toss and makes it glitter like gold. That spot in the middle would chase many away screaming but you just tenderly coaxed it right back into glory❤❤❤❤❤❤job well done sir!🎉🎉

É simplesmente maravilhoso ver um artista talentoso como o senhor trabalhando; não são tantos, por isso, o meu espanto! Desde o início do processo até a conclusão, eu quase não "pisco os olhos" pois é com muito prazer que reparo em cada etapa, os seus cuidados, respeito e carinho com cada peça! Mande para o Rio de Janeiro - Brasil uma carteira de fã! Os melhores cumprimentos!

I love this table!!

I enjoyed this question and answer video. Very interesting. Great format for you to share your skills. Thanks.

Excellent work

Great addition to your content!!!

You Da Man Thomas. Your answers to the questions, well, they were all Pretty Good😁. It is such a pleasure to watch you and always enjoy your timely responses to my comments. Take care and be abundantly blessed my friend. John here, photographing the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.

Stunning.

If it is Cuban mahagony perhaps it is older?

Wow, I've always enjoyed your videos, but I really enjoy the letters and your responses. Keep it up.

Loved this

I live in Sydney Australia. I don’t have antique furniture but I just love watching your videos What a wealth of knowledge you have, it’s fascinating. One thing though please introduce your dog to us

Right side top pull-out table no restored. Left un-noticed ?

WELL DONE SIR. IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL.

Fabulous job! 🙂

Phenomenal work

This was super helpful; I see you posted it 9 years ago, so I don't even know if you'll get this comment, but I have a table that has some chipped veneer, and someone gave me some mahogany veneer to patch it with, but I've never done it before, and these 7-8 minutes were so informative, from the taping to the clamping of the straight edge to the table, to chiseling out the filler and a bit of wood. Thank you so much for posting this. I've got my fingers crossed!

It looks great Tom

I just held my breath through that patching process, its a magnificent piece of furniture,really impressive.

I love the leg jig repair tip. That is awesome!

This Q and A session was really enjoyable and worthwhile. Thank you

I am so sorry for your loss. On may 9th 2024 my adored life companion Maximus "Moose" passed away at age 12. He was a huge black cat who saved my life when he was still a kitten. I am terribly sorry for your great loss of your partner, companion and true friend. Even though it has been over a year for you, I know there is a huge void. ❤

I am mesmerized, glued to every detail of your repair. I started very late in life, learning wood restoration and it has become a passion thanks to masters such as you. Thank you for taking the time to post. P.s I'm a huge fan of hot hide glue and mix and tint shellac. I'll keep coming back. 😊

Thanks so much for all of the helpful information.

You outdid yourself on this one Tom.

Ive been watching you for several years now. Haven’t done any woodwork yet. But you and your gentle way with your gentle voice and animals have given me so much peace through many family tragedies in the past several years. I thank you so much. Just one thing … I need a tee shirt that says ‘I think that looks pretty good’. God Bless you Thomas Johnson.

Oh, such a GREAT idea, Tom (#askTomJohnson). I have no doubt you will be inundated with questions. Thanks so much for this helpful video. I, for one, frequently have problems clamping odd pieces together. I also don't have a lot of power tools yet (like a band saw, so GOOD). Wonderful, wonderful advice on all subjects. How about that bird's eye maple? You say it's 'quilted' - I've not heard of that & folks have such lovely pieces that they are restoring. This is heart-warming, for sure! Thanks for the video!

There is the master at work, what an amazing sensitive restoration.

Nice one! Cheers, Tom 👍🏾

Non sono molto esperta e nemmeno una professionista ma, ascoltando le spiegazioni che dai ai tuoi followers, anch'io imparo qualcosina ☺️Grazie!

Very generous. Thank you. I've had a stool in my workshop with a broken off leg for over 12 months and now I know how to go about fixing it. Thank you! Great video. Cheers, David

I never thought I'd see spam on your channel!

My dad would call that a Rube Goldberg but perfect.

I enjoyed hearing the different questions you’ve received and also hearing and seeing the solutions from fairly simple to very complex. I hope you do more of this type of video in the future. Thank you for so generously sharing your wealth of knowledge, experience and trade secrets.
