VERY BROKEN armchair restoration!

[@adinchina1]

Every time I watch your video I want to go and buy some broken antiques and renovate them 😂😂😂

[@williammcdonnell3748]

ANOTHER CHAIR SAVED FROM THE BONFIRE LOL, love your vids thnx for sharing

[@davidharris241]

I laughed so hard after you sat down. The close-up of you w/the sound was Oscar©️ worthy! 🤣 Beautiful job on the restoration, as always. Really love the fabric, and the shellac finish. Cool how the seam is hidden by the chair's design. Also like how it keeps the profile of the back more streamline; not puffy. Chair looked really drab before. It's gorgeous now, very curvy & sexy. ❤ Thanks for another excellent video, Ahti!

[@jennylawson1980]

The way the wood moves after the layers of stain and shellac are applied is very beautiful. The wood grain really shows well. Beautiful restoration 😊

[@nancyring8104]

Such a pretty chair!! And it looks very comfortable, too! (As long as it has a seat!)😁❤️😍

[@reneemcfadden7509]

You make me laugh. I love your sense of humor. (And I always learn something.). Thank you.

[@skauffman74]

What would a superb craftsman be without his sense of humor? Another beautiful restoration Sir.

[@carmencampbell6994]

Yes, those chair curves are quite sexy! That's what draws me to a piece when I'm looking to restore as well. But... if I'm going to need THAT many clamps for an easy curved back, I better get my Christmas letter to Santa ASAP. LOL

[@rey-dq3nx]

I really love this background music.

[@sarashahak8075]

Im watching a lot of restorators videos. You are the best by far!!!

[@RLM1943]

Behold the "Clampinator" . Howdy from Texas .

[@JamesDeese]

I love the humor you sneak in on each video. Life is for joy!

[@lindat7525]

I just did the simplest ever re-upholstery project only because of the confidence gained by watching this channel

[@arlenelamont5610]

Your skills are amazing and your sense of humor is very entertaining. Which together make an excellent video!

[@SallyBuskey]

I love how you brought it back to it’s natural beauty. I love all your videos!!! Thank you,,,

[@tamarafruntasu4171]

Всегда восхищаюсь Вашей работой!!! Какой же Вы молодец, золотые руки и умная голова!!! Спасибо за видео и с нетерпением жду дальнейших видео💞👍

[@Quaker521]

Nice chair! The rodeo 'leather' looks good too.

[@sheph7]

Most excellent work as usual. Easy restoration only after a lifetime of practice and learning. I LOVE the design aesthetics of this chair.

[@redskins43]

you do such great work. My wife and I watch from Hawaii and you have such great talent and we love your videos... we are subscribers and we look forward to seeing more of your great work... aloha...😊🤙🌺

[@pamelaremel7477]

What a lovely chair! Loved the end of the video with you falling through the bottom! TOO funny!

[@dorislindeque887]

Thank you for explaining, why most furniture is strained dark and I want to compliment you on your extremely clean work shop

[@BritInvLvr]

I love this chair so much….even before the restoration.

[@douglidz2944]

Another beautiful restoration, who needs new chairs when you can fix the old ones.

[@weniard]

You are the best furniture restorer - ever

[@heyhope326]

It's neat that you restored it to just what it used to look like. 👍

[@katm6]

That turned out beautifully.

[@dennisbishop3842]

Wow. Very pretty chair.

[@milkywayexplorer942]

Customer has good reason to be satisfied. Nice job ! 😀

[@hillsidecastle]

I would have thrown that chair away. I thought it was ugly. Then you restored it. Now I see how beautiful the curves are and what nice style it has. Really lovely, now.

[@julieholden7343]

Try dental floss string to get glue into cracks/splits by loading string with glue and pulling each way and repeat until you think you have enough glue in split .

[@ellisc.foleyjr9778]

Great Repair and restoration. amazing what a little TLC and energy can do. thanks for sharing. ECF

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Oh that's quite lovely. Ahti you do such lovely work. It looks like it's been in a museum. Love this style of chair. Thanks for sharing.

[@thorstenbollhorst1676]

Great work on this chair. Absolutely fabulous. 🎉And your wonderful sense of humor is back. ❤😅

[@pjhalchemy]

Love the non-slip clamping wedges...on my todo list! Thanks for the spirits/scrub trick for lightening the stain. Loved the humor and fun videography style on this one. And Yes nothing much better than multiple coats of shellac (bug poop) to make the curves and grain pop to eye candy! Glad you got some business from your appearance and hope it grows. Thanks much for what you bring back to the community!!

[@luisarusso2748]

thank you for 10:34 of relaxation on a busy saturday afternoon 🙂! all the guys who say that you ARE THE BEST they are all more than right!!! best sunny regards from switzerland!

[@colinfblair]

Great job thanks for the video

[@melodypanek448]

Classic and handsome chair in excellent condition now! Also, I like the music you played at the end of the vid. You've played it before and I like it the best, so thank you!

[@briansworkshop01]

What a fantastic job thanks for sharing your time and skill 🍺🍺👍👍🇬🇧😊

[@whirlwindnz]

it would be amazing if the original craftsman could see your restorations. One thing I would love if if you ever had time to do a quick tutorial on well-made furniture and cheaply made furniture and how to tell the difference. Thank you very much for these videos.

[@ИринаМартынова-ъ4ъ]

Боже , какой МАСТЕР!!!! Всегда с нетерпением жду новых работ. Магия Ваших рук завораживает и уносит в волшебный мир!!! Браво!!!

[@sophiachristo7546]

Definitely a sexy chair! Thanks so much for sharing

[@woodksu]

I restored a pair of chairs which looks like yours! But it had an other form. Oak, dark finish, brown faux leather with green other side (the same actually), seaweeds. Chairs had even the pencil-writing on the plywood. Hi from St. Petersburg!

[@TgWags69]

Would you consider doing some videos teaching finishing techniques? Do's and don'ts. Explaining shellac and how to use and apply it etc. I would be interested learning from a master 😉👍

[@Josuefprado]

YES!!

[@yeagerxp]

Excellent restoration 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Be safe🇨🇦

[@jcsrst]

Respect the tools and wear eye protection😀 I love that chair! Very nice design, clean and elegant! Thank you for sharing.

[@christeenconner6772]

Love to have this chair for my office

[@tormodgustavsen9249]

What a beautiful chair!

[@boxxdrmtb]

I literally broke into applause when you sat in the chair without the seat that was the best part of the whole video and then your signature end of video music kicks in and it's just so great.

[@TheFatesLieutenant]

Only too true regarding ALL tools! Great work! Thanks for taking us along! Watching you gave me the courage to tackle a glider rocker that needed a lot of love and attention - came out very nice!

[@bobmarrier4374]

Easy appulstry job because of the great design of the chair. Great job on a timeless piece.

[@linafrost2179]

Great: result, explanation and humor😅👏

[@jamesswanson1915]

Beautiful! Could watch you all day!

[@Dagonomican]

Amazing how this chair turned out.

[@bobbyvff]

Very very nice work. And thank you for using material that matched the original and not something that looks like a refugee from a 1970's Bathrobe factory

[@lorettataylor3374]

Awesome once again.❤

[@davidlewis492]

Once again sir you excel and succeed cheers.

[@Laura_Brock]

Your restoration matches the elegant design of the chair perfectly!

[@DelnoraY]

Talented and with a sense of humor 😂….great job, Sir.

[@lynnjasen9727]

Simple, but brilliant, repair. And then a really wonderful restoration. This is a piece of furniture with no “period”, just timeless style and beauty. Also, great video. Thanks! 🇨🇦💕

[@KastusMusic]

Cool, as always!!! And you've got 200k!!! Congratulations!

[@Iflagum]

Top notch. A real craftsman. Thanks for sharing.😎

[@evec.1933]

Truly beautiful work. I so enjoy your videos. You got me on the “sitting down” joke! Very funny. I look forward to your next video.

[@marilynnde]

Oh! I love that chair! You tickle me. I love your sense of humor. Great job! I cannot see the repair at all & the stain looks perfect.

[@RestorationVideo]

*_Super-impressive, fascinating, satisfying, and just beautiful to watch. Great job!_*

[@tinydancer7426]

I love furniture of this type. Good, solid wooden frame. Good solid seating. Made for comfort. Made to last. No fancy geegaws needed. thank you for giving this chair a new lease on life.

[@luboszama]

Great job, I love watching and learning from your videos.

[@allavery5206]

Great job! As usual

[@khamilton7537]

You are truly the King of Clamps!😊

I am Chairman ;)

[@НаиляГафарова-ъ3ц]

Отличная реставрация!!! Приятно смотреть , как вы работаете!!! У вас "золотые" руки, вы Мастер с большой буквы!!!!

[@ladytron1724]

You had an excellent teacher.Definitely a star pupil.😍

[@Rev-D1963]

Another awesome job Ahti. True, this one didn't need the full-on restoration you often do, but it still took high-level skills and knowledge to make the end product what it is. My wife laughed at the forgotten seat incident! :) Thank you again brother for your work and amazing videos. God bless. Rev. D.

[@selmamachado5728]

One of the things I like about your channel is the absence of the expendable monologues that are common on other catering channels. The sound of the tools, saws, sandpaper and polishers are a plus for anyone who enjoys restoration.

[@ATRestoration]

I am the man of few words :)

[@simonwaters1965]

Simple job, but a great result

[@ellenfoster9764]

Love your work and your sense of humor!

[@ashby4211]

What a satisfying job you have. That chair is gorgeous now.

[@bloggalot4718]

I like the result especially after the shellac.

[@dannraff]

Mr magic hands once again satisfys to me his remarkable talents thank you

[@vikik4714]

This chair is so 'classy'. Excellent job! Like always!

[@novembermiss]

Beautiful job as always--from a dreary, depressing looking chair to a gleaming one with beautiful wood. Love the material you used for the upholstery--looks perfect with the restored wood finish.

[@christinarobinson1163]

Dam! You are awesome. Just think of all the different people who may have sat in that chair. You saved a part of history. Cheers!

[@marcusott2973]

I did almost all my homework in high-school on a chair like that. Great work as usual.

[@fletchro789]

It looks like a strong, sturdy chair for a court room, maybe! ❤

[@jburnett8152]

I love how you make the wood come to life.

[@TerryProthero]

It's barely safe for me to use a regular stapler to staple papers together. I would probably be a threat to myself and others with most of the tools you use. Fortunately, because of my severe nearsightedness, the lenses on my glasses are extremely thick. They could probably stop anything short of bullet.

[@ulrike6000]

Mit Übung schaffst Du es, als Frau sage ich versuch es❤👍👍 🇦🇹

[@ulrike6000]

Mußte herzlich lachen, köstlich ist Deine Dastellung😂❤

[@migunismigunis]

Кажется, меня, ничто не может удивить. Но каждое видео это шедевр. Превосходная работа и юмор 😂👍👏 браво !

[@tedschmaltz4346]

That turned out rather well, The wood finish really works with the new seat and back material.

[@war7334]

Beautiful restoration.Your videos are short and sweet.

[@mariedrotar3215]

You are the best!!! Love your work.

[@lindaaylward4506]

Beautiful. You are so skilled & talented. As a lover of antiques & handmade goods I appreciate your attention to detail. 😊

[@philedgerton7892]

"Sexy curves?" Are you spending too much time alone in the shop? Haha. Joking. Good work!

[@lovingmayberry307]

Beautiful as always! 💙

[@melodyhutton9307]

Love your sense of humor

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

Very nice restoration, and you’re right about the shellac bringing out the curves of the design.

[@toriam15]

Very funny 💨. Great job as always!

[@myraholmes1178]

I look forward to your newest repair/restoration. You show us each step. I like that about you. Your work is beautiful

[@gayle525]

That’s my kind of chair. Very beautiful and comfortable. You did your usual excellent job.

[@dortedenmark9047]

Amazing work and a very nice sense of humor😁

[@lyndamorgan5221]

Sir, you are a GENIUS! I love your work 🙏

[@tomatin6437]

Wonderful design (harmonious curves)and wonderful restauration...

[@jomercer21113]

Very nice. I never have enough clamps! Shellac is my favorite finish, too.
