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.

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

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@VisionaryGardener]

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.

[@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.

[@kathyandthedogs626]

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

[@sallyradcliffe-hh6ud]

I could watch these videos all day. So much talent

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@jojojo00]

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

[@larrynelson3329]

Beautiful Lane table. Turned out great.

[@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 💯

[@Shuggysmama]

Turned out beautiful 😊

[@Tim-57]

Hey DD Great outcome Take care 😊

[@thomguerra2145]

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

[@yuhangng5532]

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

[@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!

[@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!

[@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.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

You did a beautiful job with this broken table!

[@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

[@jennlizzy2019]

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

[@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?

[@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.

[@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!

[@jodidavis6595]

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

[@leewood729]

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

[@berryconway4296]

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

[@janetd4862]

Love how it turned out!

[@djmond3497]

This table is gorgeous! I love all Lane furniture!

[@littleacrehomestead]

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

[@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.

[@carlagarthwaite4958]

Would love to buy one of those beanies if you ever sell merch! 🙏🏼 lovely piece as usual

[@snowartmom]

Oh my! That turned out so beautiful!

[@sherrygiambalvo2288]

Once again, you've done a beautiful job. I turned 60 this year, but my legs aren't loose. I wish they were! 😂

[@jeffjamison8614]

love this table. I hope I can find one like this some day.

[@michaelhenderson5683]

Beautiful table and a great restoration 👏👏👍

[@MaxCJ]

That came out great - love the colour!

[@stephiepeterson]

What a beautiful table and what a great job on the restoration!

[@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

[@theresaperkins9500]

Wow! It is gorgeous!

Another great restoration! I love relaxing to these videos and have learned a lot although I don’t plan on restoring anything in the near future. 😂

[@killy1958able]

Very nice 😊

Used straps on the inner edge of a large L shaped table... it's a wondrous idea to arrive on.

Beautiful table.

[@aok2727]

Ask @MadCityModern as he is intimate with Lane furniture and he would know what that mark on the bottom would be

[@KimNevelzer]

As always, LOVELY !! ❤😊❤😊

[@Heymrk]

Show us more of the cat! 🐈

[@debsmith2269]

It looks brand new again. All ready for another 60 years.

[@deadiemeyers1661]

I like the mid-century pieces the best. But then, I am a mid-century piece myself... 😉

[@Kimkvatti]

Great job as always! 🙌You used hide glue this time, or am I mistaken?

[@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......

[@mavision6525]

Nice job

[@katenickels617]

gorgeous

[@janejdough2230]

Thank you

[@Grumpist1]

can't believe you did a face reveal before you did a cat reveal.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Well, the cat isn’t mine. It’s a neighborhood 🐱 that hangs out in my yard a lot. I’ve named her Applesauce.

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

@@DashnerDesignRestoration Now we all want to know why you named the cat Applesauce. 🙂

[@kathleenmoore6887]

The very end pieces look darker. Is it because of the curvature of the wood there?

[@L-A-C-IV]

Wow, I was just researching whether or not I could mix gel stains together and here I am, watching this video with cans of GF antique walnut and candlelight open in front of me experimenting because I couldn't find a clear answer online. Thanks for the answer LOL, it looks fantastic. In your experience, what's a good ratio to mix the two without the green undertones becoming overpowering?

[@lazygardens]

As long as you stick to same manufacturer, you can freely mix colors. Run some tests - you are the only one who can decide what "overpowering" is. I used General Finishes Georgian Cherry (too red) with Java (to tone down the red).

[@jarjar0653]

Love it! ❤

[@ElliottMcCrory]

The glue from the old attempt at restoration dried up, and didn't hold the pieces together. Will the Titebond II glue do better? Why?

[@kentshrader6616]

Love your work! This table now has a soft appeal to it. Quick question from a newbie: What was the ratio of the stains? I know this is a basic question. But a response would be appreciated. Thanks for sharing!

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Thanks. The ratio was 50/50.

[@kentshrader6616]

Thanks so much for the info.

[@cynthiamarianne2942]

I just bought a midcentury coffeetable, with (I think) an wax finish and a nasty black stain with chipped finish or veneer (there is still wood grain visible). Really don’t know what to do with it. Is it possible to strip wax?

[@doomprophet]

Where do I get my Dashner Design & Restoration hat from?

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

I’m working on setting up a store. I’ll put a link in the video description when it’s ready.

[@whatsupthom]

maybe it was originally designed with two moderately secret compartments, though its from before the time of remotes, which they would be ideal for hiding.

[@AaronKoelker]

Nice table! How do you clean the wood glue out of those syringes you use for tight spaces/cracks? Do you just flush them with water immediately after?

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Yes, flush with warm water.

[@RoryL83]

What do you do with these after you fix them up? Is there a way to buy them online?

[@jglow8337]

That would make a good video. The travels of Dashner mid century pieces...

[@bascodelagamma]

👍

[@summs_shop1300]

Why not use a wax vs stain. Wax oil mix would show off the wood beautifully.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

A wax wouldn’t add color. Stain does.

[@ruthiezophia7118]

It reminds me of a toboggan

[@CaitieLaine]

I mean spilling glue is unfortunate but spilling it into a dustpan is definitely one of the better places to have spilled it. 😅

[@laurafisher6531]

Amazing as always wish I knew what the square underneath was from? I think you speculation about the lazy Susan is correct, I really don’t have any other ideas. Please pin the comment if anyone replies with the answer. Thanks dashner ❤

[@animeangel1983]

Maybe it had an alternative base? Like one that was a wider middle part like a T shape?
