Not your best work.

I LOVE that you fix veneer with veneer instead of bondo+sand and paint. Thank you!

[@artemis3120]

I love how you keep in all the mistakes or unintended steps. I've learned far more from mistakes when I'm working on something than if everything went perfectly! Keep it up!

[@upcyclestudio]

Me too!

[@cmitchell7347]

Looks great! The person who donated this had no clue it was destined for some Dashner Magic. Having worked on a piece in a cold, MN garage, appreciate that your videos show realistic working environments to which many can relate. Most people who are redoing furniture, often make do with less-than-optimal conditions. They don't have a designated, spacious studio, nicely outfitted with special lighting, all the latest tools and supplies at the ready, as seen in a good number of YT vids.

[@l00tur]

Well said!

[@lazygardens]

Good point. If he can work in his garage, I can work in mine, which is about 20 degrees warmer.

[@pixelgraphica]

I've been watching you restore furniture now for some time. I'm so impressed with the work you do. I really like mid century furniture so I'm already partial to your selections. I'm so impressed with the fact that you work in/outside your garage in all weather and get incredible results. You make the furniture look new!!!!

[@Joans20thCentury]

I love your clean work and straight forward presentation.

[@cooljoe226]

Awesome job! you remind me of a wood working Bob Ross.

[@ravenreese]

Lovely job. I really like how you roll with the punches when things don’t go as planned. 😊

[@mariannerady1137]

Beautiful piece! Your videos are so peaceful, I just sit back, have tea and enjoy listening to you and the working sounds. Perfect for a Sunday evening

[@marciabradley7660]

Your work and knowledge is inspiring. I look twice at some of the thrift store pieces that look like they need to be in the landfill, because I’ve seen what you can do. The work itself is a healing art.

[@colleenmccarthy-evans3149]

Lovely update to this charming piece. And I so appreciate you mentioning that you might forget from time to time which sanding grit you last used on a piece...I thought I was the only person who did that 😂

[@goodandgreen]

Gotta say, I love your face! Gorgeous work and calming narration. Another winner 🏆

[@susanrobertson3479]

I love the sound of the birds in your videos! Susan from Canada

[@evewhite1474]

Good to see your face after many months of watching your hands.

[@abogadamexicali1807]

Long time subscriber here, I have been enjoying your great workmanship and smooth, calm energy. It’s also nice to put a face to the voice 😊

[@mirothiel8039]

I really like seeing your face in the videos now. And that intro. I think I like your quirky sense of humor.

[@TheDivasoprano]

Great work. The stop-motion stuff in the beginning freaked me out!

[@WriterAndBanker]

What’s worked for me with stubborn marks is using wire wool to scrub the oxalic acid into the wood. Then do the normal wait. Then using wire wool with water to scrub/rinse the area

[@martihurford]

Great piece. I would buy a restored piece that had carved initials. It adds to its mystic and would have me wondering who was that person(s). Who knows, that might inspire me to write a little story about the person who did the carving. As an aside…I enjoy your tone and temperament as you narrate your videos. There’s that undercurrent of not taking yourself so seriously. For me, it’s a welcoming ingredient. 🤭

[@lynetteswinburn5408]

Thank you for rescuing orphaned furniture!

[@nxespo]

loving the new format you've been useing when making ur videos!

[@tamnywheeler4689]

Great job. It’s so good to see that you have times of trial and error. Beautiful work.

[@michellepetersen5121]

I live in southern Minnesota so when you say “warmish” I know you were talking about the mid-thirties we had the other week🤣🤣🤣

[@sarahrenfrow9795]

As always, beautiful. Touch of the Master! Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed!

[@spikefivefivefive]

I had the same problem with a dark ring so I made a paste with Barkeeper's Friend and it worked like a charm.

[@awr2217]

The night stand looks great. Always look forward to a new episode. I understand where you're going with revealing the finished piece at the beginning. Please reconsider showing the finished piece at the end of your show. The not knowing until the end is the best and most exciting part. Thank you

[@bryanherr1093]

The birds were happy with the milder weather.

[@magorzatamichalik7078]

bardzo dziękuję za doskonałą pracę, oglądnęłam wszystkie twoje filmy, zawsze z przyjemnością, a twoja twarz idealnie pasuje do ciepłego głosu!

[@Vikingwerk]

What an improvement! Beautiful work!

[@TheCraftyMagnolia]

Wow! Commode is a OLLLLDDD term for a small sideboard. Most people equate the word with a potty seat. It turned out so pretty. PS: It will be nice when warmer weather comes and we can see you without your hat! LOL

[@traceyrice]

So much better! This is gorgeous now. 💜

[@MrsJax304]

Always amazing work. But those glitches at the beginning I appreciated the throw back. Or maybe that was just me ... or was it. Lol

[@theshivelys]

I was a little hesitant on this one because it was so wrecked but you turned it back into a beautiful piece.

[@hickorygolddoc]

You gave this piece a new lease on life! The stain you chose I think it’s a wonderful color of stain as well. Great choice!

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Thank you.

[@toddylu6869]

I just refinished the top on our smaller kitchen table. The base is like a lighter stain and I do not have the talent to match it. So I used a Minwax Polyshade in black. When I got ready to seal it I grabbed my go to t shirt to cut a piece off for my poly coat. My husband said “aren’t you going to use a brush for that”. I said,”no, Dashner always uses a cloth and there are no bubbles… do not question his techniques”…. Then I did a kinda evil laugh, thinking about your guitar video. Piece came out perfect, of course…. Because I watch your videos.

[@alanatolstad4824]

Another beauty.---(Hope you stocked up on groceries for this epic storm. My Cousin lives there & that's what she did.)

[@luannsims2159]

Once again very pretty you are a professional just love when piece are redone with wood stain I don’t like when some people paint everything

[@acieleshky877]

Yay you made an appearance!

[@AngelsLoveE]

9:36 "I kinda like red" ✨ love that you keep the warmth in all your restorations/pieces. It so nice to see some furniture with rich color.

[@eamonanthony6767]

Nice piece of work Dashner.

[@sunnycadwallader2873]

What a beauty! Great job!

[@EllieAllieSameThing]

The fact that there were mistakes and mishaps and you showed us AND you fixed them and made it look awesome is why I subscribedto you, it looks so good and natural!! (even when you placed the stain before the shellac coating on the bottom it looked awesome)

[@wendyhale2189]

The birds are really happy about your warmer weather.

[@bren70ssss94]

Nice quality piece , excellent work , it could even be a tv stand 😊

[@LPhil]

We need merch t-shirts with your scraper and logo printed!

[@lukie31]

I have watched most, maybe all, of your videos and love your restorations. I have always felt a comfort in your narrations, but just realized why that may be. Your voice always sounded so familiar to me. Now I think I know why. Your voice really reminds me of the narration to the movie Stand By Me. Thanks for sharing your hard work with us; I love it! 😊

[@SparrowStockwell]

It looks nice. I like it.

[@kristannestone1748]

That is so beautiful.

[@zidon333]

I'm glad you showing also your mistakes which we all sometimes do when refinishing. I learn a lot from you, well done and continue please 🙏

[@caterinapislari9116]

the cut at the beginning is much appreciated, mr Lynch

[@margeryk000]

Looks great! Oh, and the table looks nice as well.

[@jeanarock6233]

Beautiful color!

[@sarahrenfrow9795]

It’s gorgeous, but, that’s what I expected from you. Appreciate that you just don’t give up! Thanks for sharing your expertise again.enjoyed!

[@underdweller]

gorgeous work. I was surprised at how well you managed to get the woods to match; that veneer was so much darker to start with!

[@penelopebutton9323]

Thank you for not adding music to your video. It’s nice hearing the work being done, the explanation and bird chatter in the background

[@WilldoAldone]

I've been watching for a while too. I like all your choices of furniture peices to bring back to life and how you accomplish that task.Thank you for posting

[@ajcpianoforte]

Im developing such a furniture restoration crush 😭

[@nuovomostro]

excellent color choice!!

[@ricjamil3073]

Looks amazing! Thanks!

[@michaeltreadwell777]

Brilliant result - yet another Triumph. Thanks for sharing your skills with us. Take care 🙂

[@wjm9987]

Beautiful!!

[@caroltanzi29]

Great job of restoration on that Dixie N/S. When my Father and Mother gave me my mid-century custom walnut design 3 piece bedroom set, (many moons ago), my Father had a very thin layer of clear laminate put on the tops. You never really notice it and it was a smart idea. Over the years it still looks brand new. Father did know best! Again, nice job. Carol from California

[@ghostofkadesh9041]

Your work is always impressive😃👍

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Thank you.

[@robertschmidt6383]

Looks fantastic! Great job.

[@cathyswope5174]

Warmish weather. Like 33 maybe. Shorts and a tee shirt time 😂

[@alext8828]

I had to resort to muriatic acid on oak. Worked like a charm. Be careful. The shellac is a good idea. The adhesive will stick better to a glossy surface.

[@elizabethguerra3132]

Good job beautiful table have a nice day sir.❤

[@TheKruizr]

I like that you saw it was looking a bit blotchy and went back and redid it, how many times I've seen KZbinrs just leave it, looks great! 😊👍

[@midcenturyflipper]

Lovely makeover!! You got me into this business 🙏🏻🙏🏻I just did a small 60s teak coffee table fix & flip! Love this side hustle 🙏🏻♥️ Keep it up!!

[@boa1793]

Love the sound of the rain.

[@CarolBouche]

Hey nice work! Thank you. So I have seen people use toner spray to even out woods that don’t quite match. I think mowhawk brand has some. Angie at Transcend furniture gallery has good tips also on sanding and perfecting finishes.

[@brie_b]

Looks amazing! And thanks for showing the gel stain process.

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Thanks for watching.

[@lynnlamastres3424]

I'm glad to see your face in my notifications. I have to get some work done before I can watch. I will be looking forward to seeing it thus evening.

[@carolmoore3706]

Beautiful job . It’s funny how the weather can be totally different in different parts of the world. It’s summertime here and very humid . Keep warm and safe from Australia 🇦🇺

[@Jennifer-jn2gv]

Nice job 🙌🏻

[@dianneroney1572]

Great work again you make watching what you do enjoyable 👏🇦🇺

[@tanyaprice202]

That’s a classic piece! I have the tall boy in that style. Love it

[@PB200559]

Great job! I had doubts about what you were going to achieve midway through the video, but, as always you pulled it together in the end.

[@franceswright8277]

Just beautiful! So much work, but the results are marvelous.

[@cindyburst]

it is beautiful!

[@loismaddux4800]

It turned out beautifully!!!❤❤❤

[@honest8bob]

[@furlvr1961]

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL 😍 ...and the table turned out quite lovely too! 😘 Love the color you got it to.

[@fannycraddock99]

Hi David, it wasn't really your day but it all turned out lovely in the end. Another piece that I'd like in my home. BTW nice to see the man behind the voice. Thanks.

[@Little_Red_Riding_Hoodlum]

It's simple and lovely. Nice job.
