[@ToolsandTime]

Wow that was an amazing restoration! You took something that was rusted, crusted and disgusted and made it beautiful. Excellent work!

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thank you very much!

[@MHow-qc3ns]

WOW! From scrap to treasure. Another beautiful restoration.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@stephenashpole6982]

Now we know what that strange noise was coming from your garden neighbour. Great job

[@Jan-sn5tk]

Excellent job. Love these cabinets with shallow drawers. Used to keep stationery items in them in an office I used to work in

[@catgynt9148]

Great excuse to invest in a sand blaster. Nice restoration, thanks for sharing. Cheers

[@CrustyRestorations]

And have since invested in a sand blaster, hoping for no more wire wheels👍

[@killy1958able]

Gorgeous 😊

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thank you! 😊

[@nancylujan1471]

Well done and kept work area clean all the process through. Two suggestions put nice instrumental music on the background to make the video more enjoyable and use clear glass protection for your eyes. ❤

[@dianeadams9537]

WOW!!! GREAT WORK!!! YOUR METAL DRAWER CABINET LOOKS FANTASTIC!!! 💖💖💖💖💖

[@edwardmartin3069]

Great job on refinishing this cabinet....but man, my back was killing me from just watching this... Wow...

[@trentyoung1135]

Great outcome. Wonderfully done!!!

[@luceliarossi7712]

Fantastic job, congratulations!!!

[@christinarobinson1163]

I am amazed at your talent and sill to take that yucky, rusty thing and make it look so new and quite beautiful . I would be proud to put this to good use.

[@scroungasworkshop4663]

Keep up the great work Phil. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

[@josefinarubalcavalopez4044]

Precioso y elegante. Excelente trabajo. Lo quiero!!!!

[@CrustyRestorations]

Many thanks, mid project now hopefully more to follow👍

[@rebeccagoldberg8333]

Great work. I’d love a cabinet like that!

[@curtischildress9580]

That old cabinet is what my office called our "paper index". It held differently printed 8X10 forms routinely used to create filed documents. It's a real hoot to see another old paper index in the world. Our office had that cabinet since the 1960s I'm sure & no doubt much earlier. Ours was a dull sullen green color.

[@cindyrhodes7393]

That was alot a work, but it turned out really nice....great job..🥰

[@robertschmidt6383]

I thought it was me. No volume either.

[@rosemarymagrino772]

Audio came in at 8:11

[@johnveglio4433]

Boss, I think you did a fantastic job on that cabinet.👍👍 The only thing I think you should have done differently is all that sanding and stripping. I would have taken it somewhere to have it sandblasted. But hay, that's just me. 👍👍👍👍👍 It is still a beautiful job !!

[@tomfull6637]

Thin steel plate warps when sandblasting (because of the heat)

[@bobski7032]

My torn rotator cuff was flaring up just watching all that sanding…nice finish

[@claudioiannarelli4357]

Great work. Bravo....💛❤

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thanks ✌️

[@Cradley684]

Great job, look's OK friend have a nice day !!!. 👍👍

[@lainaanial]

Excellent, you have more patience than me.

[@lfuentes4098]

My trigger finger was getting tired just from watching you hand spray. I like the two tone. It’s hard to tell but does the wire brushing leave scratches? Or does the enamel fill that in? If you do a lot of these,you might want to put a spray gun on your wishlist. I’m not sure how long you left the stripper on for but next time leave it on longer than the 15 minutes and maybe use plastic to keep it wet. Then if you take the solid stuff off you can use the stripper and steel wool and brushes to get the remaining paint off. The after wash with steel wool knock off the rest.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, my first attempt, some lessons learned for the next attempts. 2 coats or primer pretty much hid any scratches. Spray gun is on the shopping list.. 👍

[@ronnyrice697]

Great make over

[@lfuentes4098]

Was that a bucket of soapy water you were washing off the chemical stripper with?

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, and some degreaser. Have since invested in a sand blaster👍

[@mattbannan637]

I LOVE THIS PIECE...GREAT JOB!!!

[@АндрейНикитенко-ф4с]

A powerful angle grinder with a large steel brush would speed up the work by half. In addition, there are abrasive sponges for removing paint and rust for this tool. In general, you have done a great job and got a good result. I like your video.

[@philippedavid6407]

With 180 or 240 grit flap discs to finish. You put loads of effort into this resto and deserve our respect for that.

[@MissLady-pq4hc]

Oh i would love to own one of these. 👍🏼💙

[@CrustyRestorations]

I may do another, it might go for sale if interested. Probably in spring now though, getting cold and dark out :)

[@tonyaclaxton9169]

That was a lot of stripping, sanding, scrubbing and panting. Nice job

[@lighthouse6748]

Beautiful Restoration and finish. There was NO VOLUME ❕

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, my first attempt, lessons learned for next reno jobs 😃

[@saeedkedman]

You should have sandblast it,that would save you alot

[@CrustyRestorations]

I've now invested in such a tool👍

[@toma5153]

Great job using available tools. My comment on others' suggestions: Know you're sandblast shop. I've had auto parts ruined by knuckleheads. Blasting thinner gauges of sheet metal takes a light touch, otherwise it warps. As for powder coating: around my locale you're talking fairly expensive. This cabinet is worthy of a Rustoleum rebuild.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Have since invested in a sand blaster and powder coater👍

[@miriammuskal5402]

Amazing 🤩 job

[@JConnors110]

Good effort. Well done!!

[@simonhi99]

Nice final result, but can't help thinking a drip and strip or media blast followed by powder coat would have saved a lot of time and effort. BTW, if you want a better finish on those brass nuts, put the wet & dry on a hard flat surface, instead of a cloth.

[@daltonharvell2470]

Nice job!

[@johnpinner1]

Sandblasting was a great invention

[@CrustyRestorations]

I've asked santa for one for christmas...😃

[@arlynecantrell4268]

Awesome!

[@CrustyRestorations]

Many thanks, more to come 👍

[@angelawhite7152]

Hi Phil, good job

[@robertschmidt6383]

Why not use a large wire wheel instead of a brush? Never mine it came in at 26:00 minutes. Been watching ball the sanding. Lots if work. No blasting available in your area? Cabinet turned out really great. Makes me want to build something similar in wood.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Blasting next time of the budget allows :)

[@PaganWizard]

Great restoration!!!!! I am a bit curious as to why the gaps between the top 3 drawers were there, but not for the rest of the drawers. Rather than using harsh toxic paint stripper, you can use citrus based paint stripper. It's nontoxic, it won't burn your skin, and it smells like oranges.

[@cardinalrestorations]

I used to think the same thing up until I actually looked up how citric acid is made. Has literally nothing to do with citrus fruit when used in cleaning or chemical agents. Even most of the "food grade" stuff is quite terrifying.

[@lucimaria-x3b]

Que laburo!. Felicitaciones, quedó muy bien. Ar✌🏼

[@ErnestoRodriguez-fn1sh]

Un gran trabajo de restauración. Le doy un 10 👌👍🇪🇸🌿

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thanks for watching,more to come👍

[@williamdiaz2532]

Podrías averlo quemado a fuego indirecto. Así solo ocuparlas una espátula para terminar de descarapelar el resto de la pintura quemada . P.D. excelente trabajo!!

[@kerylcooper2314]

Looks better than new😛😊☺️😀👏🏼👍🏼🍀🍀🍀❤️🛐🇺🇸

[@husseindowaji6867]

لقد كنت محقا في استخدام الماء اثناء حف الصامولة

[@ЕленаХмелёва-й2э]

Классная штучка! Я хочу себе такую. 👍🏼

[@williamdiaz2532]

Recomendación. Cómo el gabinete es de metal podrías haberlo quemado, así facilitaría el lijado y la pintura sin mencionar que tardarias la mitad del tiempo invertido.

[@gurubhaikhalsa9337]

Painted the character right out.

[@nancymiller1032]

I want that piece!

[@matthewstrickland1773]

Gonna be mad real, skipped straight to the end.

[@CrustyRestorations]

My first attempt, its quite long lol.. got some others coming, will trim down the editing👍

[@anitamorales1506]

💜💜💜

[@meryherr9448]

Ese gavetero es para toda la vida,y reparado es muy bonito,👍

[@pennyh9445]

Nice makeover, but check to see if your in focus, it was pretty blurry. Also, you could do a voice over so you don't get a copyright strike.

[@deangallo5158]

What a fantastic finish. What did you pay for that?

[@CrustyRestorations]

Sorry late reply, it was in the shed for 30 years, but there so expensive to buy now 😳👍

[@margaretalbert69]

We need sound and explain along with what you are doing

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, my first attempt, lessons learned for next reno jobs 😃

[@debrastoudemire492]

Great work! No sound.

[@adelasmith4636]

Use a sandblaster. It is easier and no weird chemicals.

[@CrustyRestorations]

I've asked santa for one for christmas 😃

[@adelasmith4636]

Good luck!

[@carlossantos-fz7xo]

Isto não é um restauro. É uma renovação. Como renovação está um ótimo trabalho. De resto, foi assassinada mais uma antiguidade...

[@aureaaparecidaserafim5412]

Vai ficar lindo este arquivo gratidão 😂🎉

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thanks for watching👍

[@madeleinegombert661]

Why no volume?

[@CrustyRestorations]

I had the radio on, i think youtube don't allow music, copyright issue. Lesson learned for future projects

[@ольгаэахарова]

👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯

[@Kitty_mama9]

Some dialog would have made it much more pleasant to view.

[@Thehainet]

Sehr gute Arbeit, aber das Video, hat noch viel Potenzial. Audio, ist wichtig, bloß keine Dudelmusik. Arbeitsgeräusche sind, wenn sie gut ausbalanciert sind das A und O. Zeitraffer ist ok, aber nicht das ganze Video. Zeig wie du etwas machst genau, wenn das dann 5x hintereinander kommt, kannst du das dann in Zeitraffer zeigen. Nur mein bescheidener Ratschlag. Mach weiter und schau dir ruhig andere Beispielvideos an, lerne auch aus den Fehlern der anderen. Von mir einen 👍 LG Thomas

[@CrustyRestorations]

Much appreciated, early days, but learning about editing etc. Thanks for watching 👍

[@marciec6862]

Ficou muito bom!

[@CrustyRestorations]

Many thanks, more to come 👍

[@Nancy-y8q1n]

Should have sandblasted the paint off, would have gone down to the bare metal

[@CrustyRestorations]

Was on a very limited budget, hopefully next time..thanks for watching 👍

[@andrzejporeda7281]

Świetnie jest ta cała szafka na narzędzia odrestałrowana alamis ją czyścić wiertarką czeba było ją wyliaskować i na czerwono umalować tak jak są wszystkie inne szafki malowane a nie na czarny kolor 🤔 pozdrawiam twórcę tego filmiku 👍👍👍👍

[@CrustyRestorations]

Thanks for watching, more to come 👍

[@anthonyvincent5892]

Good job but the video goes on and on....had to skip forward through the mindless repetitive sequences. ..

[@gabrielalacueva4827]

hay que hacerle un monumento al taladro

[@CrustyRestorations]

That drill just keeps going 👍

트롯알리미님 항상 좋은영상 올려주셔서 감사합니다 장민호씨영상 좋은것만 올려주시구요 장민호씨와 금잔디에 관한영상들은 올리지마세요 장민호씨와 어울리지도않고 금잔디 소식에 대해서도 알고싶지않아요 다음부턴 영상올리실때 심사숙고해주세요

[@charleyjohnson8200]

OMG! I sat here and watched you attempt three different methods, of your inpatient ass try to strip this thing, just to watch you finally bring out the grinder, which is the way you should have started, all the while thinking, PLEASE don't put more paint on it! Then BY GOD, that's exactly what you did! You didn't restore that, you made a joke outta the entire process!

[@mariadasgracasdeoliveiraes6301]

Gostari de ter um armário com várias gavetas como está

[@koukouvania]

no sound or is it me?

[@mizsherm4352]

In the real world one would take it in to have it sandblasted and powdercoated. I'd prefer an old school color over the black/gray but whatever.

[@giotablet0156]

Give me the sandblaster

[@CrustyRestorations]

Have since invested in a sandblaster👍🤣

[@Jabez525]

No sound???

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, i had the radio on. Music copyright issues otherwise. Lesson learned, headphones next time...

[@nooralbishi6957]

Disappointed no voice😮 it could be wonderful ASMR video 😢

[@boriskaru]

Should be taken another color, get them look more modern

[@gloriarojogomezllanos9257]

Como nuevo!

[@carollykins9475]

Where is the sound??

[@CrustyRestorations]

I had the radio on, i think youtube don't allow music, copyright issues etc. Lesson learned for future projects...

[@fstoll3]

I think this restoration could have been done differently with more advance methods and the painting method was awful.

[@АлексейКузнецов-ъ3х]

Слишком затянутое видео.

[@NolaGal2601]

Little sound and what’s there is annoying and sped up. Didn’t finish watching.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, i had the radio on. I think YT would have issues with copyright etc. My first attempt,lesson learned for next time on the speeding

[@MissLady-pq4hc]

No volume?

[@CrustyRestorations]

Yes, i had the radio on. I think YT would have issues with music copyright etc, lesson learned for next time 👍
