I am 85 years old and have been woodworking for 51 years. I love your show and I always pick up a new trick from you. You asked which method I would use: A new piece of wood or putty the old one. I would have to ask myself "What mood are you in today 'Fester'?" If I am in the "don't bother me, leave me alone, go away, and get lost" mood so I would putty the old piece and move on. If I had a good night NOT worrying if I am going to make it through the night, I would 'boldly go forth', measure correctly, cut it correctly, stain it, fit it, and rejoice" What a damn good boy you are 'Fester' !!

@byhammerandhand Жыл бұрын
One technique I use when using epoxy fill is to use some soapy water (water with a few drops of dish detergent) to help do the shaping and smoothing. A lot of my work was on-site and fixed charge, so I would have probably used a toner to do the coloring to speed the process. Guardsman Black Cherry or Mohawk Newport/Ebonized Cherry looks like it might have been a close match. Most furniture like this has been finished with a lacquer toner anyway. And I normally used a non-wax burn in stick for the little fills. I have two types -- a hard one and one that's a little bit softer for areas that might receive a bump over its life. Non-structural repairs could also use Bondo or some other mfr's equivalent. I remember once fixing a dog chew on a rather complex base molding of a cabinet. I used the Bondo and it took quite a while to get the molding profile cut back in. Once done, the customer said it was a great color match. An hour doing the fill and 5 minutes doing the color match!
@grizzlygrizzle Жыл бұрын
I'm coming from a carpentry background, not a furniture background. I have used the Minwax bondo (High-Performance Wood Filler) in many applications, and when I have to stain it, I sand it with 80 grit, or even 60 grit to leave some grooves to accumulate more stain and imitate grain. (I convince myself that it works, but tbh, not very well.) -- For cutting out moldings, I have lots of experience. For some years, I was doing restorations on 1-1/2-story tall, pre-WW-I ornate mahogany entranceways for apartment buildings in Boston that had suffered UV damage, and required scraping away the surface layer of wood. These jobs were about $10K each, and that was below the market rate. Some had Corinthian column-capitals, with carved acorns and oak leaves, and some of the moldings were built up to the point of having over 40 distinct surfaces to scrape and sand. -- Doing this on moldings was made easier by a no-longer-available Craftsman detail scraper (Hyde makes one, but the shapes are not as good). It's a handle to which are clamped various blades, held at about a 75 degree angle to the axis of the handle, by means of a retractable t-rod that fits through a keyhole in the blade. Three of the blades were rectangles with one end rounded to a radius, 1-1/2" wide, 3/4" wide, and another 3/4" wide one that was tapered to get down to about a 1/16" radius. There were a couple of assymetrical pentagons, one tall and the other one very flat, the flat one with ends like angled chisels. And the last one was like an arc from a 3" circle, flat on the other side, like a semi-circle but flatter, that used about 1/4 of the circumference. All of the edges were sharpened, and the resulting scrapers were very useful. Eventually I had to get a metal fab guy to make me new ones, because the old ones had been sharpened down to being too thin to fit well on the handle. -- This kind of scraping gets into shaping, and the angle on the handle was very helpful. At any rate, I was able to get nice, sharp grooves with these tools. For sanding, I tried out a few detail sanders and found them useless. I ended up using strips of credit cards about 7/8" wide, with 1/16 of a sheet of 80 grit wrapped around them. (I always found Norton Pro-Sand to be the best. 3M clogs too fast and doesn't cut as well, except for their stretchy plastic sandpaper which is useful in some applications.) -- For exterior work, I use Sikkens Cetol Marine varnish. It's an alkyd varnish that stays somewhat flexible, and has UV protection, and it lets the grain show through a lot better than the Cetol residential products. (Corporate rearrangement led to the two lines being made by different companies.) The marine product is easy to clean up for maintenance coats-- wash with TSP and a scotchbrite pad, rinse, dry, and recoat. They recommend every two years, but it looked pretty good after six years, being in a non-marine application. -- And when applying any varnish over oily woods like mahogany, it's imperative to wash the wood down with acetone or laquer thinner, to get the oils out of the surface of the wood, just before application. Otherwise the color comes out all splotchy. Been there, done that.

Thank you. Not only did you give us options, but you also did a great job teaching us. I agree that sanding would have helped the repair but also would have used the new piece.

Just glancing through the comments I didn't notice anyone mention a third or 4th technique, the third I used a couple times. Cutting out the affected area and using real wood as the filler. With the damage on all sides I get that it would be more difficult than say just one side. Works in a splint like fashion. The fourth technique is to completely cut out the affected chew area and splice in new wood, with how you were meticulous to saw the joints I could see you doing that. With the stain as dark as it is it would be easier to cover up if the whole piece is sanded down and redone in it's entirety. It could also be that the video doesn't capture the tone and grain as well. Unquestionably quality craftsmanship regardless! 👍
