That's beautiful! I love it! I'm impressed you took something in such poor condition and made it into a piece of art! I wish I could do this, but I don't have patience. Great work! Thank you!

Das Ausgangsmaterial war ja diesmal ein richtiger Totalschaden. Eine Kiste aus Tischlerplatte, bei der sich die Deckfurniere schon abgelöst haben. Eine Aufgabe, als wenn man aus einem rostigen Rahmen ein neues Fahrrad baut. Man kommt kaum auf die Idee, dass unter der Oberfläche noch ein uralter Kern verborgen ist. Wieder eine sehr schöne Leistung.👍👍👍👍👍 Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Video. Die beiden Kollegen bringen ja auch immer erstaunliche Ergebnisse.

I really loved the slats of wood under the veneer. I was hoping you would finish those to make the body of the chest. Why did you cover the slats with veneer? Now no one can see the aged beauty beneath.

Because it was like that before.

[@foratrade1695]

Мастер, безусловно, потрясающий! Но есть ли смысл в реставрации таких предметов старины? Ну уникальные вещи, изделия знаменитых мастеров, вещи, представляющий собой семейную ценность, вещи с "изюминкой" типа резьбы, инкрустации деревом или металлом. А здесь? Зачем? Время, силы, материалы потрачены ради чего? Хотя такой ящичек сундучок у себя на лоджии я бы иметь не прочь.

[@chrigunrestauration]

Нет. Не делай этого. Но это не всегда должно быть ценным. Тогда скоро не останется старой мебели. Это просто весело.

[@foratrade1695]

@@chrigunrestauration мои друзья готовили к продаже квартиру очень старой пятиюродной прабабушки. Попросили поучаствовать в выносе хлама, та ещё барахольщица была. Я попросила отдать чемодан с одеждой середины 19 века. Ей богу, это кайф, бережно отстирать, накрахмалить, отгладить, найти как изготавливались кружева валансьен, монастырское шитье и восстановить утраченные фрагменты. Время от времени мои внуки наряжаются в эти одежды, мы играем в "дворянское гнездо". Надо же как то учить приличным манерам, застольному этикету, мазурке и вальсам. В нашей семье гламур не пройдет! Это цель последнего десятилетия моей жизни. Я счастлива, чтоесть ещё люди, которым из дерьма конфетку сделать весело.

я вообще в этом поделии смысла не увидел - все что он "отреставрировал" спряталось за новой фанерой, и на выходе получился новый ящик, до кучи кривой - не просто так он щели шпатлевал. Я бы понял если бы он фанеру только изнутри приклеил, а снаружи оставил бы досочки, обработал бы их как-нибудь может тогда хоть какой смысл был бы. И петля снаружи просто доставила, когда крупным планом показали как он саморезы в нее вкручивает не до конца - думаю как же она закроется, а она снаружи - ай хитрец!

Моё мнение - нет смысла восстанавливать вещь, настолько поражённую плесенью. Выбросить и всё. Вывести всю плесень мне кажется невозможно, останутся невидимые глазу частицы. А вдыхать такое очень вредно для здоровья. Лучше таким ящиком не пользоваться и не восстанавливать. Сделать такой новый из новых материалов, не пораженных плесенью будет гораздо безопаснее. В нём не было изначально уже красоты и ценности. А труда затрачено много. Да, красиво вышло, но небезопасно.

[@chrigunrestauration]

То, что вы говорите, - правда. Я просто хотел проверить, сработает ли это.
