My dad was a carpenter and I used to help him out with his projects. We lost him to cancer a few years ago and l have there are some unfinished restoration work that refused to look into because I was busy but in reality was secretly still grieving his loss. But, yesterday I was in a dark place missing him more than usual and decided to revisit the abandoned projects to remember him with love rather than anger & frustration for leaving me. And today, while browsing for restoration ideas I stumbled on your video! I must admit, I feel a whole lot better (yes, your rooting voice made it even more beautiful) as it reminded me of how patiently my dad used to tackle his projects. Now, I can not only finish the project but watch your videos and learn things I wish my dad was still around to teach me. Thank you so much!

[@Romy_880]

You should read up what Carl Jung and Dr Stanislav Grof have to say on 'Synchronicity'. Also, please take care of yourself. Your father hasn't left you, he's still pretty much connected to you always, it's called Quantum entanglement.

[@jemrawc]

Premarani Many, I am also watching my first ever video from this amazing gentleman. As I instantly fell in love with his soothing yet brilliantly informative voice I thought I’d check the comments to see what people thought of his videos and yours was the first one I read. I’m 42 and lost my Mom to Fn cancer 5 years ago. I miss her desperately every day. I also (unknowingly) avoided anything that my Mom loved to do like baking, sewing, DIYs, home repairs and trash to treasure. Over the last two years or so I have slowly eased back into baking, sewing and DIYs but haven’t been able to attempt any work on our house or anything similar to restoration. Not sure how it began but I realized today that I have accumulated so many items that could be absolutely gorgeous with a lot of TLC , patience and elbow grease 😉 just waiting in my garage. Long story long lol, I now find myself here. Feeling like I’ve found exactly where I need to be to help heal emotionally while learning how to do the things that I started learning with my Mom. Thank you for posting because it gave me the courage and strength to finally admit and fully appreciate that I’m still grieving. I’m sending you lots of love hugs and strength. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers ❤️ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦

[@grainnefoster]

This resonates with me. My Dad used to restore furniture and I lost him also to cancer 7 years ago. I got the bug from him and it’s such a great hobby. I’ve just purchased a mid century dining table and that’s how I found this channel. Best of luck with your projects.

[@darrenferns6260]

I am sorry for your loss 😫😖😖😭😭😭 Can we be friends?

[@debdanielle]

I am sorry for your loss. I lost my woodworker dad to cancer 27 years ago and am ready to take up furniture restoration as a hobby now. Watching these videos makes me so happy, and also connected to his memory. Take care.

[@originalsilvergirly]

Showing the trial and error process is really helpful to me. I forget that I don't have to have the perfect answer before I can start a project. Thank you.

[@dittohead7044]

Wouldn’t this b great if they taught this in schools? A lot of people love to be creative and work with their hands. Such a nice job

[@ilyagudovich5172]

I'm not sure how they do it now, but we used to have 'labour classes' and did a little bit of woodworking and a little bit of metalworking. Unfortunately like with many other things you start to appreciate it much later. I didn't really care about it back then, but it looks so interesting now))

[@galacticnine]

Once upon a time carpentry (it was called wood shop back then) was taught in middle and high school. I wish they would go back to teaching kids these practical skills.

[@seasonalmommy7173]

Ikr???? I remember when I was in school they had woodworking and it looked like so much fun.

[@roxie9569]

Yes, these are life skills & they do still have this! Our son recently took 3 years of wood shop class in our Texas public school :)

[@dash2869]

It depends on where you live in the world, but in the US, as others have noted, this was once a commonly taught class in middle and high schools along with home economics and, sometimes, autoshop. The reason that these classes fell by the wayside isn't because of a shift towards digital, as someone else suggested, which we can evidence by the fact these classes were done away with from most school curriculums long before digital became common place. It's a lot more simple than that and stems from what everything always boils down to: money. Schools with less funding to go around end up cutting programs based on how relevant they are to our school system's primary function, which is to teach students how to read, write, and perform basic arithmetic. So practical life skill classes (which people easily and unfortunately argue should be taught in the home - tho, of course, they're not and between two full time working adults who even has time for that) are some of the first that hit the chopping block, as well as, liberal arts programs like art, theater, language studies, and music. Sorry for the length of this comment, this is one of those things that really bothers me. These types of classes most definitely should be offered in public schools, our nation has the money to fund them across the nation, other countries already do offer these classes, but instead we in the US stuff our money into government programs that do little to improve our society and already have fat budgets to begin.

[@beeonthyme5760]

I am grateful to you. I was having an anxiety attack and watching and listening to you and your calm and easy manner, helped me to pull back from a very bad experience.

You have the best editing. No music is key. Just you and the natural elements of nature. “A” for continual effort in perfecting your craft nicely done 👍🏼❤️

[@lizeggar2421]

Yes!! The music can be so distracting. Thankyou for not playing any. The sounds around you, like the icecream truck and the birds are music enough.

[@darlenevm]

I was looking for videos about repairing water damage to an antique table and came across this video of Steve’s. I think it’s one of THE best “how-to” videos I’ve ever watched. Steve shows the damaged table and gives a step by step overview of his restoration process, along with the products and tools he uses. He gets directly to the point without unnecessary talk and actually held my interest throughout the entire 13 minutes and 45 seconds -- even when Steve took an ice cream break (you hear the neighborhood ice cream truck music coming from outside the garage first🤣). What I appreciated most was his deep knowledge of restoration, which was apparent when confronted with a mysterious stain that required additional attention. It was great seeing Steve’s methods succeed, and the table turned out simply beautiful. An added bonus is Steve’s soothing, calm voice. A+

[@chloedotweir]

Wow! Such dedication. And it's nice to see that even someone as experienced as you has to go back to square one sometimes.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Yep, sometimes things don't work out as planned. I just have to remember to be patient and try again. It's a learning experience. Thanks for watching.

[@Smellslikewoodsmokeandrain]

I really appreciate that you show trial and error and then how you fix them because these are mistakes that a lot of us (amateurs) would make and in a “perfect” tutorial it doesn’t show them making any mistakes and therefore doesn’t show us how to correct it or what we can do if these things happen which is a massive part of the learning process.

[@ca6177]

Your perseverance is commendable! So happy to see someone who's not an expert but able to teach! The table turned out good!

[@TyroneMitchell]

I learn a lot from this channel. Also, I'm really glad there's not any screaming. Just honest mistakes, but more importantly, good technique.

[@morgankennedy6708]

I am slowly replacing all the IKEA in my house with interesting yard sale/curb freebie/flea market finds. I rarely completely refinish anything because I like the history of scratches, etc. I do more cleaning and physical stabilizing (removing modern nails and screws, etc.) than refinishing, but I always want to learn more.

[@sylviac.6778]

I like your style, I love the curb side freebies and resale shop finds. As a professional restorer and conservator, let me share a few hints. Not everything needs to be refinished. Washing a piece with Murphys Oil soap to remove years of grime is a good start. Then on a warm day in the driveway use Kiwi shoe polish and fine steel wool, working with the grain. Let the Polish dry and buff with wool sock. You save the patina and project can be done in a short time . Kiwi Shoe polish has Carnauba wax in it, very fine, very good.

[@stefan2473z]

This guy is so calm, I'd listen to him all day. He's more therapeutic than the actual woodwork.. Absolutely love it

[@Iloathsnow]

Persistence is the word for this restoration. This was so helpful in showing that all is not lost if something you try does not work. Just try again... Thank you again

[@anniefannycharles9951]

I like older items better when they're not perfect. Another great job by a true professional.

[@markharris5771]

Anniefanny Charles Totally agree, older things deserve some history. I also like when things go wrong and to see how they are fixed by someone far more competent than I am. I don’t mean that in a nasty way but as a shared learning curve.

[@mannyroman6133]

Hardly a professional job

[@Tim60076]

I love how you took on the repair work for the ink stain and various holes etc. I once had to repair a door that was scratched up badly by my dog because I was going to sell my house. There was a lot of damage. I literally had to paint, after sanding, wood texture with various colors of staines and fillers on the door like it was a painting on a canvas. I’m a retired art teacher and forever artist, so this was easy for me. It worked well. You reminded me of that challenge when you had to make multiple attempts at repairing the ink stain . By the way, the person I sold my house to…was blind.😊

[@jlh5995]

Just like a lot of other people said I like that you showed even times were you made a few mistakes that we all learn from afterwards . I do appreciate all the help but when some folks only show the process goes so smoothly ,that doesn't help me when I come to problems and don't know what to do or try. thanks for the video

[@d.l.3149]

I'm glad you took the time to restore the table as you did instead of painting it. I'm tired of seeing beautiful pieces of furniture being painted with chalk paint. I enjoy your tutorials. I'm learning a lot. Thank you.

Yesterday, I bought a nice Art Deco table at a local flea market. I paid a ridiculously low price. It has a few flaws, like one prominent ink stain and some water stains. Thanks to what I learned from your channel, I was convinced I would get it back in great shape. The ink stain is already gone. I have never used oxalic acid on water stains, so that will be a new experience. Thanks for your video's, they got me inspired.
