This broken table needed a new drawer and a wooden hinge. Satisfying RESTORATION

[@spawnsmom9386]

What a transformation! I don't get why people paint antique furniture. New mass produced furniture, yes, but antique? No way. Your attention to detail is by far the best on You Tube. And the fact that you inject some humor into your descriptions makes it so entertaining. It may not have been a "quick" project, but it was a beautiful result. Thank you for saving old furniture.

[@jakhan4203]

Sooooo agree!!!! ❤

[@Flippingdrawers]

That’s very kind of you! Thank you 🤩

[@monicatomedi9752]

Ottimo lavoro come sempre ☺️

[@fortmacmom3122]

Sometimes they were painted before they were antique! 😂

[@bluecurlygirl]

Sometimes they're painted to offer a layer of protection. Sometimes it's so it can be kept by the owner and painted to blend in as possibly it was too dark and heavy looking for a room. A million reasons. I don't judge (unless it was a crap paint job and then I judge. A LOT!)

[@NolaDay]

I'm an 83 year old gran from Pinetown, near Durban S. Africa and have so enjoyed watching your videos for some time. My late husband and I lived in the south of England for two years. He was on a business transfer. I would like to have moved to England! The cats are entertaining to watch. You do very good transformations. Well done! Nanna N.

[@betsymcgovern3267]

I don't know if this is world-wide, but in the USA, lots of people are downsizing and moving to spaces that are much smaller than what they had previously. That table would be brilliant for my 750 sq ft apartment! And I think I told you before, watching you bring things back from the "dead" is always amazing to me. You are a resurrectionist! ❤

[@NancySherer-t9v]

Yes, you are a professional! It's fun to think back to your early videos when you were just figuring things out. Your attention to detail inspires me.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thanks so much!🤩

[@GreenWitch1]

Jay, you’re more than a professional now. You’re an artist! You’ve come so far since you began! I had to laugh at myself when you held Hugo up to the camera. I smiled & said hello Hugo to my phone 🤦🏼‍♀️ Fantastic result! A project always takes twice as long & costs twice as much as we think.

[@giseleafecheoficial]

You are mad… in the best possible way. You do an insane amount of work on the pieces until perfection. Amazing. And your cat is one of a kind!

[@jessitutt7069]

I literally gasped and said, “Holy shist!!!” That is an elegant, gorgeous table and the brass accents are perfection! Who would have imagined that was possible. You’ve made a silk purse from a sow’s ear! I think you should start wearing a cape because you are the super-hero of furniture refinishing. I also appreciate all the tips from the professional. You are amazing!

The contrast inside the draw was a nice surprise.

[@Thepourdeuxchanson]

Beautiful work, the golden touches give the finishing contrast to the dark wood. And you get funnier and funnier as time goes by!

[@beccachurch]

Like the dark wood against the brass. Beautiful!

That sad little painted table really needed an extreme makeover, and you were definitely the man for the job! The final reveal looks like it came from a high-end boutique! ❤ Greetings to you and Mando from Virginia, USA! Mando is becoming quite the shop manager! Cheers!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Yay thank you 🤩

[@nmp6338]

Only a “professional” would call this a QUICK PROJECT! Your techniques, tips and tricks are so helpful. And amateurs like me need all the help we can get. The table looks lovely. I would have either given up after two days, stored in my garage for months or tossed it out after a few years. You make it look so easy and it’s not. Stripping paint is often such a time consuming nightmare. It’s great that you have your kitties for moral support.

[@johntoldme]

As any professional can attest: the first 80%of a project takes 80% of the time. The last 20% of a project takes the other 80% of the time.

[@YvaJStoryTime]

Your bengel kitty is so beautiful. I can't get enough of his romping about while you restore the furniture. My grandfather was a furniture stripper by trade, and I didn't learn anything from him, but I do remember some 25+ years ago, I found an old table that was too high to be a coffee table and too low to be a dining table. I tried to restore it, and spent hours sanding it. If I could have done the restoration I would probably still have the table.

[@mpulleyscott]

Once again I am astounded by your skill to transform a piece of “trashed” furniture into something even better than when it was new. I thoroughly enjoyed this video. The technical explanations of “what & why” held my attention to the point I was almost sad the table was finished. It’s a beautiful work of art now. Thank you for sharing.

[@jonjayryzner]

Such a beautiful and elegant piece of furniture from what looked like a basement or bar workshop utility table! Your woodworking skills and strong attention to detail never cease to amaze me. I’ve learned SO much about technique from watching your videos and you are definitely my favorite KZbin personality who does restorations! Please continue your work… Each video release is a treat!

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

I swear I saw the wood draw in a deep breath when you removed that horrendous white paint. The before condition is so bad, and your finished table looks amazing.

I always love seeing him in your videos.

[@margaret7620]

I enjoyed this transformation very much. During my early childhood years, we had just such a kitchen table. The drawer was divided and that’s where we kept the “silverware”. For dinner, the leaves come up, the table set and time to eat. After cleanup, the leaves go down making a bit more room in the kitchen, but still just enough “table” for some coffee and conversation.

Wow, I so agree: truly this is almost a miraculous transformation! From dilapidated, decrepit and unloved to sleek, elegant and absolutely stunning. Making a replacement drawer with such attention to detail in the joinery and the stops. And that brass pull and those shiny matching castors; what a visually delightful counterpoint to that dark stain finish. The total effect just glows!. You only partly explained why: "because I am a professional". Yes that's true, but you are also an artist. You've created something unique and truly beautiful!

that drawer was for a table cloth and silver ware, in a time where most people lived in tiny homes the best things, like a fancy lace tablecloth and the best silver were kept with the table they served, this piece in the US would be part of a "stand alone" kitchen, before built in cabinets....I love that table and it deserved your attention...I would totally buy it if I were near you.
