I restored a quirky FOLK ART CHAIR from 1920´s (video contest)

Brilliant! Anyone else would have left that in the dumpster. I love seeing what you can do. Good luck in the competition. You already won in my book!🎉

[@dcs1414]

My dad used to do restorations like this. We have a rocking chair he restored that he was given in an old wooden box all in parts. The rockers were eaten up with worm holes and the tops of the arms were so water damaged the wood came apart in pieces. He created a beautiful chair out of those parts. This reminds me of that. He didn't have many of the tools you have and this was at least 40 years ago so the improvements in glues and different supplies have come a long way since then, but I see you using many of the old ways to do the work too. You are an amazing craftsman and artist to be able to bring a piece like this back to its original glory. I love watching your videos. Thank you.

Yes, I was going to say the same thing! There are still marks on it, which I LOVE. It isn't a restore pretending to be a brand new piece, the age and character still shows. I have watched all three, this one had the MOST work involved with it, hands down.
