This is the difference between a furniture restorer and a furniture flipper. True restorer, a wood working artist. Thank you for saving this gorgeous piece from a flipper who would have painted the whole thing. Your restoration of this wardrobe was amazing, your skills are amazing. This piece is restored and it is stunning. ❤️

[@user-im5yr4vw8w]

You are my favourite by an absolute mile. You don’t talk. It’s about the furniture not you. Your skill levels are at master craftsmen level. You don’t alter or amend, you restore using traditional techniques but with modern machinery. Well done. I love watching your films.

Ahti is the best.

[@shellydehart8217]

Yes, I agree. He’s a master craftsman n was taught by a master craftsman. There’s very few of them out there. ♥️😊👍

[@spongebobsqueeze]

Wow !

[@mardigra1916]

Excellent craftsmanship

[@PixieStitchs]

The finished wardrobe restore looks incredible 😍! Every time I watch one of these videos, I'm struck by how much work is involved, and how much knowledge you have to have in so many areas to fix everything! What a profession you have to be proud 👏 of, while perserving history one piece at a time!

[@cv990a4]

A 100 year old piece of furniture in Estonia has survived the takeover of the country by the Soviet Union, then the brutality of WWII, both the Nazi invasion and the Soviet counter invasion, then decades of Soviet occupation, then independence. There was a lot to survive. These pieces survived when oftentimes people did not, so may be in some cases a link to such people. That Estonia is now a prosperous place means some people now have the money to commission such restorations.

From my grandmother I've inherited a bedroom set made in a similar style as this wardrobe, and it is really interesting to watch you pick it apart and put it back together again. Makes one appreciate how many hours of work it has taken to make each and every single piece of it. This type of furniture has become unfashionable in my country, and is often thrown away. It warms my heart that you appreciate their beauty, and are willing to use your advanced craftsmanship to renovate them even when they look beyond repair.

[@user-ll3vm4iv8i]

You've saved another one! The workmanship is beautiful.

[@naturalcambion3747]

Great title for a mystery novel. “The Blood in the Wardrobe”.

[@Y2Ksurvivor276]

Lol, you beat me to it

[@rebeccarekward251]

I love it!

[@Emy53]

I wondered what that stain was too, but thought the cabinet may have been used to store some type of food, or it could be blood....😂😂😂😂😊

[@charlesbutsch7201]

It is always rewarding to see your transform a worn and battered piece of furniture to a shinning example of your talent and artistry.

[@rey-dq3nx]

Every restoration you do is better than the last one. You’re simply the best!

I am sure the varnish and other chemicals compromised the DNA. 😂 Well done.

[@deeskinner9014]

Stunning! I loved the fix for the doors, hadn't seen that before, but what a great fix. Also loved the 'bowtie', very cool technique. Thank you so much for posting!

[@lindasueanderson8024]

I think I heard that wardrobe sigh with relief and say “thank goodness I am in good hands finally.”

[@mdeysenroth]

That was an incredible amount of work, and a beautiful result.

[@jennylawson1980]

Wow!!! This restoration is absolutely 💯 incredible! Beautiful job 😊 Also, with your perfectionist eye, you can tell you were born to restore and give a new life to the past.

Your knowledge of how to correct flaws in the wood is brilliant. This is definitely one of your best restorations. Really enjoyed this one. Thank you.

Как я рада, как я рада! Свеженькое видео от Ахти!!! Спасибо, очень вовремя! Мне как раз этого сейчас не хватает!!! Наслаждаюсь просмотром))) 👍🔥

[@michaelzimmerman635]

I'm impressed that you cut and installed the dutchman without a templating jig. Nicely done. I've been watching your videos for sometime and will be attempting to patch some furniture gouges using your router techniques very soon.

[@megabit101]

It always amazes me how much alcohol cleans wood. I really love how you light shellac the wood before staining you are really nourishing the wood. Your a master of restoration and your skills are to die for. You always do such a bang up job on all your pieces. Such honourship in your work. PS love the bow ties, first time I have seen you use them! Also the wood knots how you made them strong with half deep cuts is amazing. The things one can learn off of you are priceless.

[@farhorizons3901]

It's always a good start to the day when there's new AT video to watch 😊

[@tobiasbostwick9002]

Wonderfully appropriate restoration. You fixed what was broken while preserving the character that was earned by virtue of its age, PERFECT! You expertly paid respect to this piece of furniture, BRAVO, AND WELL SIR!

[@Torbis101]

You made this look perfect. I really like that you pay good attention to detail & that you are thorough when repairing different items. I love watching your videos.

[@suzzyturner]

You are the Merlin of furniture restoration. Your expert touch provides the magic needed to bring these antiques back to life, as the original carpenters intended it.

Con tus vídeos no paro de aprender. Como aficionado a la restauración, no me pierdo ni uno solo de estos maravillosos videos que realizas. Esto que haces no es trabajar, es arte con mayúsculas. Gracias por estas enseñanzas.

[@lynnjasen9727]

Best yet. You can’t be beat when it comes to outcomes that are, genuine, beautiful, well researched, and masterfully done. Most people working in your “timeframe” - that is, vintage that is just reaching the antique stage - don’t seem to respect the items they are working on. They change, or cheat, or replace because it’s easier. You provide a master class in why they shouldn’t do it at all! 💕🇨🇦

[@martemacdougall1985]

Breathtaking! This piece of furniture will definitely "WARD THE ROBES" for many more years. How amazing that you found those matching handles and key plates! This was meant to be! Master craftsmanship again. Your dedication to the "unwarping" of the doors was ingenious. I never realized that knot holes could be adjusted. Well done and very satisfying to watch. ❤

[@charleslight6150]

You have the patience of Job. A great artisan in every way. Love you videos.

First time viewer here.I was fixated on every detail you brought back to life.My Dad was a carpenter and cabinet maker so it was inspiring watching you restore this beautiful wardrobe.Wardrobes were utilized in early homes that didn’t have closets.I must say the finishing touch were those matching period correct brass hardware pieces.Sometimes things like that can be the hardest thing in trying to replace or replicate.Thank you!!👍👍

This piece needed lots of your attention and outstanding skill to bring it back to gorgeous! What an amazing finished product!
