Furniture Upcycle: Drawers Full Of Woodworm

[@donnatitmus4574]

Great job on disguising the wood worm damage xx

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much 👌🏼

[@mirandamom1346]

I admire your perseverance and workmanship. Paint is never my first choice, but I’m pretty sure I’d have gone there with this one. Kudos!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, I came close to painting but pleased a saw it through!

[@melodienaber3238]

Your tenacity paid off! It was wise to walk away, recharge and take a breather❤

[@kaycox19]

WOW! BEAUTIFUL!

[@awr2217]

Hi, The dresser looks great.Really nice job. Thanks

[@michaelguida448]

The dresser came out great but that little boy is such a cutie. Enjoy these years while you can because I can tell you from experience in the blink of an eye they suddenly are adults, and you're wondering where did the years go. In 1982 I went to Antarctica with the National Science Foundation and had the absolute pleasure to spend time in Christchurch. It is such a beautiful city. I hope someday to be able to return for another visit. Greetings from Northern New Jersey, USA

[@flipitnation]

That sounds like an epic story, not many can say they have been to the South Pole. What an awesome experience that must have been. Recently I sold a piece of furniture to a couple that worked in Antarctica - they worked in hospitality and ran the bar. I guess everyone needs a beer at the end of the day when the work is done! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment :)

[@fatherfabulous]

Carl, love your channel and your work. Also love listening to you talk. 🤣 Looking forward to more great videos.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you you so much mate, I really appreciate your support!! The accent seems to be of interest to many 😂😂

[@MyYewTubeAccount]

Hey Cole, I have just binge watched all your video's when I really should be working. I love your content and enjoy watching your process! I'd love to see a little more about the budget ie: purchase, cost of materials and then the sale price, I'm sure others would too and I think it'd make a nice little addition to your videos. Cheers.

[@1953lili]

Great job...love the “jewelry!”

[@mitchinmd4828]

The new brass handles look great with the color of the stain you used and the shape of the handles complements the style of the dresser. Very nice!!

[@pamsheets632]

I thought the wood worm damage might be the end! But you actually nailed it with your solution! Excellent restoration and beautiful outcome! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent! 😊

[@SuperBollus]

Us Aussies are not normally complimentary to you Kiwi's but mate you did a FREAKING AMAZING job. I have managed a joinery making high quality timber joinery and I don't think we could of done any better. In fact I think the stigma of working with something less than perfect would have prevented us even giving it a go. I am trying to flip some furniture now and I am so in awe. On ya Cole!! 👍

[@flipitnation]

Cheers boss, appreciate the encouragement! I lived your way for 15 years and have not long moved back to NZ. Missing a lot about the place! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment, might hit you up for a job when I'm back over there ;)

[@Tomeccho]

@flipitnation Hi Cole, what sort of work/industry are you in? Just curious, something telling me to ask lol

[@flipitnation]

Sorry mate, have only just seen your response!! I owned a couple of cafes in Australia and then got into ecommerce focusing on online retail. But I’ve always enjoyed working with tools and actually got offered a carpentry apprenticeship about 8 months ago but the wages that come with that were a small hurdle I couldn’t quite swallow at this point in my life. Got into flipping furniture/content creation instead and it’s changed my life. Hope the furniture flipping is going well for you, pretty satisfying when you give something a new lease on life, and some good pocket money if you decide to sell your pieces 😉 Cheers 🍻

[@sibylleherbe8260]

Wow. I’m very impressed with what you did there. It’s gorgeous now. Great job hiding all that damage.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, I appreciate it! 😎

[@joanklaczek4009]

Beautiful. Nice. Work.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much!

[@kimproctor-western3528]

Just what I needed some ideas for fixing borer tracks! Thanks made my day

[@MASI_forging]

Outstanding work. Such a beautiful restoration.👍👍

[@CandGsGMaDeb]

Great save! The transformation is amazing, well done!

[@anniewardlow9297]

A-Flippen-Mazing job of saving this dresser from the landfill. You've definitely been able to evolve your skill set! Love seeing you share a bit of your bouncing baby boy. He's a cutie... stay safe, happy and healthy! Hello from Southern California USA 🇺🇲

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, yes this piece certainly tested my skills and I learnt a lot!! Cheers for tuning in and taking the time to comment. Hey from NZ, stay well!

[@Sparkysings2]

Watching you remove the pain this way is very satisfying to the viewer. Whatever works, smarter not harder, right? Great job!!

[@faitharrowood8001]

I appreciate seeing how you dealt with the woodworm damage. I just bought a 100+ year-old house with woodworm damage in the entryway floors. I'll try your technique for sure!

[@flipitnation]

Best of luck to you, I bet the house is absolutely amazing. I'd love to get my hands on a home with so much history! Thank you for watching :)

[@Cradley684]

You have done a great job Mate, loved the matching paint process Thank's for the share and have a nice day all . !!!. Brain UK !!!. 😀😀😀👍👍👍.

[@bluecurlygirl]

God it's gorgeous now. So different to how it started and I absolutely LOVE the new hardware. A lot of work. Well done.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it! 😎👌🏼

[@deborahcole1045]

Beautiful restoration

[@nevisscot7697]

Unbelievabl ...fantastic👍👍👍

[@monicalundy4400]

You did a great job. It was a mess when you got it; but I love that you like a challenge.

[@barbaracatalano6299]

Fantastic job!! Great save.

[@barbannco]

wow what a difference....well worth the effort

[@kyliebung9913]

That was an awesome transformation! I bought a wardrobe from Trade Me and found it has borer in the rear. I no longer need it and want to flip it, so this video was helpful. Keep up the good work, from Whangaparaoa 🙂

[@flipitnation]

TradeMe is hit and miss isn't it, also though so much more reliable and less frustrating than fb marketplace. "is this available?" Thank you for watching :)

[@georgesehy8058]

Great video! Great restoration. Thanks for sharing;. George from Florida, USA

[@blazzasouth1982]

You’ve got a good eye with picking out furniture for sure

[@anitamorales1506]

💜💜💜Very Nice job!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much :)

[@vbee3571]

You did an amazing job! Your determination and skills are admirable. (Your Assistant is a littlest clumsy…but very cute!)

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, very kind of you. Yes, lucky his cuteness makes up for his clumsy chubby baby fingers 😂

[@Ladysilver43]

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@flipitnation]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@victoriad7938]

Unbelievable. Great job.

[@vrf]

Awesome! What a difference!

[@AngelaSmith-n4d]

AMAZING JOB!! Wow from a piece that was so damaged to bring it back to life, is simply AWESOME. Greetings from Australia. (Angela).

[@flipitnation]

Hey Angela, thank you for tuning in and taking the time to comment! I hope all is well over the ditch, I spent 15 years over there and hope to return in the coming years 😎

[@flatflo]

True artistry!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you 🙏

[@debralodge-schnellenberg5093]

Do you look for pieces you need or can flip quick or are a challenge? Either way I love watching 😊

[@flipitnation]

Great question, started out filling my home, soon flipping for profit and now I only do pieces for the sake of making KZbin content. Very much just for the love of it these days! Thank you for watching :)

[@lillynewkirk6631]

Excellent job!

[@rzpotts4]

What an amazing save. You did a beautiful job. 😊

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much 😎

[@yvonnebooker8864]

Beautiful work, 👍♥️

[@katiecasey5709]

Great job! Love your channel. You'll grow quickly.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you for tuning in again! I decided to start narrating again after your comment on the last one. I think it’s my preferred style too 😎

[@Shae_Sandybanks]

Bro it looks mean! Painting over the borer filler was genius. Hi from the Hutt! Keep up the great work

[@MrHuismeester]

New to this Channel and i like what i see, that is very nice makeover off this Dresser ! It is looking nice and solid again and almost chic ! It is very satisfying to watch this makeover and like the more modern twist on this piece. Thank you for sharing and see you on the next video. Greets from The Netherlands !

[@juadonna]

Greetings from Florida! Where I've never seen woodworm in furniture, thank goodness! Wonderful save on this poor dresser! The pulls are quite elegant and look fantastic.

[@flipitnation]

Hey there in Florida! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment, yes woodworm is nasty!!

[@blazzasouth1982]

Amazing job!

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

That’s amazing

[@marlenneespinoza6403]

Este mueble fue un gran dolor de cabeza, pero "el que persevera alcanza" dice el dicho y tú lo lograste. Saludos desde Valdivia al sur de Chile 🇨🇱

[@roccosisto8196]

Well done

[@melanieeaton3344]

Good save!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much!

[@allavery5206]

Wood worms damage is the worst! But you’ve managed to save the project!

[@helenablignaut662]

Kudos to you for refinishing the wood on this one. I would probably just have painted it black over all that wood filler. Well done.

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, I came close to painting!

[@vrijevoeten]

Great save!

[@yvonnepagan9912]

Hi Young Kiwi fella, I’m new to your channel. I’m from across the ditch. Melbourne to be exact. I get so amazed at all you chaps who can turn a piece of revulsion into a thing of beauty! Well done, mate! It was a hard slog but you got there in the end. Yeah, really well done. I can’t help myself! I’m a born recycler and you fit the bill to a T. I love your little fella. What’s his name? He makes a nice little interlude, whilst you scratch your…. Head, as to what to do next. I’m sold! I’ll be back for more. Good luck. I hope you can turn it into a profitable bizzo, 😮🎉❤️🦘

[@flipitnation]

Gidday, I spent the last 15 years in Australia and the last 5 were in your neck of the woods! Great spot, miss it alot! The little guy is called Sonny, keeps me very busy when not sanding my knuckles to the bone. Thanks heaps for tuning in, love the support! Cheers

[@vbee3571]

Thanks!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate the support. Very considerate and kind of you, stay cool 😎

[@beahorob5189]

Nice handles it all nice

[@MrDrProfPatrick12]

Been binging your videos man keep up the great work!

[@angelaarena5208]

Well done 👍

[@emmavik-fredriksson640]

Well done! I think I would've just painted it. 😂. So many holes! It think you did a great job giving this a new life.

[@davidfreeman6450]

I liked it so much that I went and subscribed to this channel and hit Like on the Video.

[@jeannewallace5383]

Unbelievable 🎉

[@lesleywatkins1172]

Well done you for sticking with it, I’d have thrown in a skip before you had got to the patch ups! 😂

[@flipitnation]

I feel like I came close at times 😂😂 Thank you

[@cathybenson5119]

There is also another beeswax product called Howard's Beeswax. I think that's what it's called. It apparently has an orange fragrance n is popular with a couple of furniture restorers. Nice job, btw. 😊

[@flipitnation]

Thank you very much, I’ll look that one up and give it a go!

[@malcsurfleet3888]

Yeah looks good to me ,I don’t think you waisted your money on the heat gun it took the worst off ,I think that was the best way to go,this is the first I’ve seen from you and now I’m a subscriber good luck mate hope to see many more.

Cheers Ken :)

[@leewood729]

Isn't if fun with the borer spray when you spray in one hole and it mists out a half a dozen other hole from the interconnecting tunnels? :D Good job, kia ora from Taranaki...

[@KimRinehart]

Wow, you resurrected the dead on this one!!!! That was one very unlovely piece of furniture 😖 but you really did a great job as always!

[@flipitnation]

Thank you 🙏 It was certainly was unlovely to begin with! Pleased you enjoyed the result 😎

[@elainegothard]

Ha ha being a Kiwi you'd understand why I giggled. My closed captions translated your snug fit to snug fat. I suppose only an Aussie with Kiwi relos would understand the fun. I'm going to have to watch more with captions on.

[@joocy69]

❤❤❤

[@PaperTigress]

[@briemills9209]

The audio dropped so badly on this that I had to give up.

[@flipitnation]

Sorry about that, technology isn’t always kind to me. Learning as I go :)

Customisation Is not restoration

[@katiesullivan8566]

Amazing transformation. Well done!
