6 foot Long Coffee Table Gets Reglued And Refinished | Furniture Restoration & Repair

[@rickdaniel1707]

I grew up in the 60s and 70s just a few miles from the Lane Furniture plant in Altavista, VA. There are still folks around who worked there. Going to ask around about the mystery spot on the bottom of the table.

[@Sunray__]

Litterally just woke up my wife because a new Dashner video dropped 😂❤

[@Poppinwheeeeellllllieeeeez]

You need to get out more. Take her for dinner.

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

@@Poppinwheeeeellllllieeeeez Have you ever considered being polite to those that you don't know? A little kindness goes a long way.

[@booboobingbang]

Brilliant

[@loismaddux4800]

⁠@@PoppinwheeeeellllllieeeeezI understand. I’m checking all the time if there is a new Dashner video up!

[@Sunray__]

@@Poppinwheeeeellllllieeeeez Bruh, I woke her on purpose so we could watch it together. The whole point is we don't need to go out for dinner.

[@tmpickrell]

Simple tools, simple repairs. Clear exposition on your approach. Beautiful outcome. Very well done. Thank you.

[@jaytitus902]

That thing is HUGE. If the legs were longer it'd be a dining table. As always, amazing work. You are among the best.

[@PBG345]

I have the same square on the bottom of my Lane Acclaim low table/ bench…and wondered the same as you did. Your idea of the manufacturer process is probably correct. Your table is beautiful as I knew it would be.

[@rayvin357]

we were kids when we got married my wife had to have Lane Furniture- so we furnished our Living room and bedroom with lane in 1960. Today we still have only the hope chest, and an end table which still today looks amazing. But i did refinish both about 20 yrs ago. And did not stain-so the end table has the corners - which are blond and the finish looking like your table. lane was veneer! but an excellent piece of furniture. PS we gave the other pieces to her cousin who had 6 kids and we were moving.

Beautiful job. I remember those long cocktail tables with the long low sofas. When I was first married, I had a Danish modern wood with a crème/beige marble combo cocktail table with a long stripe beige, crème, nubby, textured sofa. I just loved the look. Good memories. Carol from California

[@tachi98lep]

Loved how this table used the dowel system for gluing the joints in the 60's table. It probably have been easier just to have made the joints from the wood they already were using. Love the lines in this table, very simple and elegant.

[@mirandamom1346]

That table should count itself lucky to spend a little time at Spa Dashner!

Great table! I'll admit that i had quite the laugh at your glue-in-a-dustpan situation. It was pretty relatable.

[@bluecurlygirl]

Another great job Dash. Always a pleasure to see you've uploaded. Beautiful table. Well done.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Thank you.

[@jaycorwin1625]

This reminds me of the furniture my family had when I was little. Very nice job. I sure enjoy watching your videos.

[@kathyandthedogs626]

I absolutely love those Lane 60s pieces, and this one didn’t disappoint. Awesome video!

[@iammessina]

My 1962 Lane Acclaim extra long table had that exact same spot on the underside you talked about at 10:30

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

I wonder what it was for.

[@ch-er8by]

When I saw it I figured it was for stability - to prevent warping. But what do I know?@@DashnerDesignRestoration

[@sallyradcliffe-hh6ud]

I could watch these videos all day. So much talent

[@angela4469]

Looks like it's getting cold in your neck of the woods, while things are heating up here in Australia. Another great video, thanks.

[@cpearson7372]

❤ It's always a wonderful zing, to see a new video notification, pop-up from you, Dasher. Brings a perfect respite, to a long day. Beautiful table, I love your work. I hope you, and those you love, are doing well.

[@Flecha57]

It is starting to get cold in Minnesota... ❄❄❄ I would buy that table in a heartbeat. It is so beautiful and you brought it back to life. Nicely done! 👏👏👏

[@jojojo00]

Love it! Can you add before and after side by side at the end? That would be interesting to see, thanks! :)

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

I’m enjoying going back to the videos you released before I found you in the challenge. Although I don’t own any, I have a soft spot in my heart for MCM Lane furniture. This project really turned out great. I love your humility. You didn’t have to explain the glue in the dustpan.

[@larrynelson3329]

Beautiful Lane table. Turned out great.

[@jennlizzy2019]

So well done. You are saving wonderful MCM furniture piece by piece. 👏 👏 👏

[@shannon2003]

What a beautiful table. I love teak furniture. Great job

[@snowartmom]

Oh my! That turned out so beautiful!

[@wgale6397]

Well done as always. I get so excited when a new video drops! Thankyou!

[@yuhangng5532]

Such a nice video so satisfying to watch, especially the ending showing the finished product with only the natural sound

[@thomguerra2145]

Great result. I love the way you bring pieces back to life!

[@jennaiii]

I think that is such a lovely colour you mixed for the stain. I saw you said you'd prefer it a little darker, but there is something about this warm richness that just suits the subtle curves. If that even makes sense? Probably not!

[@karenstimson2683]

You really brought that coffee table back to life. What a beauty! Love your refinishing work.

[@Kane26510]

What a really gorgeous table. Seems like it was well designed and constructed. Thanks for all the videos.

[@kgal63]

Absolutely gorgeous. Your refinishing always makes the piece look brand new. I guess because you're good at what you do but you seem to know that sticking with colors that are orginal to the furniture will always make it shine.

[@ficelle200180]

Such a unique piece of furniture, thank you for bringing it back to life 💯

[@johnhollingshead6505]

Love your work and your understated style. Hopefully the time and motion folk looked at the spray booth and suggested posts to screw the pieces to which would bring them up to a comfortable height to spray over and under. Your idea of a turntable is probably correct. Perhaps a large round base which could be spun using your foot?

[@djmond3497]

This table is gorgeous! I love all Lane furniture!

[@berryconway4296]

Another well done project. I'm glad you were able to do some of the work inside.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

You did a beautiful job with this broken table!

[@Chef-vg4pu]

Love a Tuesday evening video from one of my favorite Furniture restorers…. and bonus it’s lane one of my favorites… thank you!

[@furlvr1961]

Simply lovely! Love the rich, contrasting wood colors. It's a beautiful piece of furniture you brought it back to life! Always great to see the master refinisher at work!

[@jodidavis6595]

I hope someday I can find a piece of Lane furniture of my own. I love it. Very pretty

[@alanatolstad4824]

I always loved the look of walnut furniture. But then, I learned that I REALLY love Queen Anne cherry!---Having said that, I like how that table turned out! I hope you get a good price for it.

[@MaceySnow]

It turned out beautifully! I really love the lines of this coffee table.

[@eddiekerbo]

Absolutely beautiful piece, you did a wonderful job on it. Thank you for your videos. ❤

[@raebooker5452]

this is one of those unicorn of furniture pieces. i would love to have found a piece like this. definitely couldn't do as good of a job repair and refinishing but i'd be happy as a clam to own it.

[@leewood729]

Ooo, you've got a kitty helper! Nice save, too.

[@apb3251]

Lovely table. Have you ever considered using Danish Teak Oil for the 60s furniture? It’s a bit lighter than the dark stain you use.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

I actually would have liked it even a little darker than it is.

[@jojojo00]

It only works if its really teak, because teak is oily, here in Europe we have tinted oils too, like you can dye the oil, or whatever its called in English :)

[@apb3251]

@@jojojo00 it works on oak. I use it on both my 1960s coffee table and also my new kitchen worktops

[@littleacrehomestead]

Love the idea of using straps in place of clamps, so clever!

Thank you.

[@ShellyCline]

Absolutely beautiful! I cant say what the area on the underside was for but i can say that the second i saw it i immediately thought it had something to do with the manufacturing process. I imagined an assembly line lol.

[@michaelhenderson5683]

Beautiful table and a great restoration 👏👏👍

[@Shuggysmama]

Turned out beautiful 😊

[@kz6fittycent]

Is there a specific reason for using one type of stain over another? For example, I notice sometimes you use a gel stain, and other times you might use a traditional stain. Is this preferential, or are there times that require specific types? Maybe you could do a video explaining your take on it? As always great video and amazing outcome!

[@janicelloyd3215]

I have a lot of Lane furniture, it’s very good.❤❤❤love your work.

[@moonchildjs59]

Beautifully done! Love it! Cheers!

[@DistractedPlatypus]

Beautiful work, as always. Well done!

[@mariannerady1137]

what a beautiful piece! Never seen such a long coffee table, you need a pretty long sofa to make this look good, maybe one that seats 6 people :D

[@keithwoodcrest]

I wish I had pictures of the old coffee table that was in a house I lived at in the early 2000s! Thing was crazy long, like 5-6ft and about 2.5ft wide and it had these round newel post looking things on the tops of each corner. It was really cool, never seen another one like it

[@monicalundy4400]

That turned out so pretty.

[@Shujashaher]

I find it difficult enough to glue back 4 legs😢. 6 legs😮 I think is beyon me - no wobble 👍👏👏👏👏

[@christopherortiz9626]

Have you ever considered thinning the gel stain a bit with mineral spirits to give you a little longer working time as well as a smoother stain?

[@lazygardens]

It really helps -

[@justchillinout2002]

At that point, isn't it just stain? It seems this would defeat the whole point of the GEL?

[@lazygardens]

@@justchillinout2002 You don't thin it much. It will be like thick ranch dressing instead of mayonnaise.

[@justchillinout2002]

@@lazygardens mmmm Ranch Dressing......
