- This dresser was made around 1880-1900 and it was in rather bad condition.
In this video I will show how to deal with problems like missing pieces and cracked details.

Title: Extremely worn and broken dresser restoration
#howtorestore #furniturerestoration
I remain speechless. This opportunity to silently watch over the shoulder of a master is truly magnificent. The result speaks for itself. Bravo, maestro!
This maestro is worth his weight in GOLD.
What a beautiful way to express that feeling! There’s something incredibly special about being a silent observer in the presence of mastery-every little detail and technique becomes a lesson in itself.
This is what i like. A true restoration. Not just slapping some chalk paint on it and crowing, "Don't you just love it?" as another piece of mid century modern goes down. I do appreciate that some peopke have found a way to generate income, but it AIN'T RESTORATION!!!! KEEP SHOWING US HOW IT'S DONE!!😅😅😅
That’s just stunning! I watch several restoration channels, and you’re the only one who would go to that much trouble to save as much as you can of the old wood. And I absolutely cannot tell the old from the new when you’re finished. Bravo!!❤️🤗🐝
I love that he doesn’t talk. Just straight to work. And I love it.
I do agree completely
Nevertheless, I would love to hear him just once.
I also watch others and he is the master by far!
@@juliecullom6955 I love to watch him work but also like to hear his voice… at least now and then❤️🤗🐝
There was hardly enough left of that dresser to call it a piece of furniture. But you found it and gave it new life. Masterful as always
Hard to believe that it is the same piece of furniture. You Sir are an artist with wood. To have those skills is such a gift.
I totally agree. He’s amazing!
It's better than new. Good video!😎
You are a man of unbelievable talents. That piece of furniture was destined for a burn pile but you rescued it and turned it into a museum work of art. Thanks for a great video.
The range of skills required to accomplish this work is astounding, as is the experience to use them wisely. You are a true master.
The chest is absolutely magnificent!
Another magnificent renovation. You have such knowledge and range of skills. I watch a number of furniture restauration channels and this is without doubt my favorite.
I watch quite a few too and feel the same. Definitely this one is my favorite!

Of course !
Such a joy to watch a craftsman at work without a lot of dreadful background music, and yes. no talk-over either. Thanks so much.🤩
How do you only have 226K subscribers? You are the BEST furniture restoration master on RUclips.
Absolutely, and also the funniest. 7:37 Behold, the drawer!!
A good day at our house is getting a notice of a new AT Restoration video
Because people would rather see paint and gilt applied quickly than watch someone methodically RESTORE a decrepit piece of furniture!!
Thomas Johnson (Antique Furniture Restoration) is also a master. Different technics.
I’m glad you don’t replace too much wood.
Fantastic…. My fave alert on RUclips… an AT restoration, this has made my day having just dropped a tin of paint all over my kitchen.. I can’t wait to watch this restoration later…..After I’ve restored the kitchen 🤣🤣🤣
Welch ein Schmuckstück, schön, wieder zum Leben erweckt! Nun kann dieses Stück viele Jahrzehnte Freude bereiten!
Saving this piece was no easy task. Who would have guessed it would turn out so beautifully.
That's it, exactly. When I saw this piece, I wouldn't have thought it was worth restoring, I found nothing attractive about it. After Ahti finished - wow! It's exactly what I love, but didn't have the eye to see what could be done to restore it's original beauty.
Anyone who's watched other posts by Ahti!😊😊
Thank you for allowing us to watch this amazing process over your shoulder without having to listen to anything other than your tools. So relaxing! You're a MASTER!
I must say sir, you are a master of your craft. I enjoy watching your videos and am constantly in awe of the work you do and how you make items most people would burn, look like new. I also like that you explain WHY you are doing certain steps and why things wore out. Please keep up the amazing work 👏
Очередной шедевр!!!
Потрясающая работа, браво мастеру с золотыми руками! 👏👏👏
This has to be one of my favourite restoration channels. As others have commented it is refreshing to see someone who saves as much of the original item as is possible. This is restoration in its true definition - the act or process of returning something to its earlier good condition or position.
Вот это мастер! Особенно впечатлило работа с приданием формы деревянным деталям🎉❤
I love watching you do restorations. My favorite channel. Can't wait for the next video. Watching you is mesmerizing and relaxing. You are the greatest. 😊❤
OMGosh that’s beautiful. Thank you making these videos. Learned so much.
This is insane. I'm watching you for the longest time but still amazed with your meticulous work.
Now that's how miracles are performed.
Taking something fit for the trash and making it beautiful again.
Another fabulous repair and restoration! Love the grain, the work on the legs, and the final finish!
Somehow about a month ago I ended up on this channel. My idea of woodworking is a hammer and some nails. I became fascinated watching you restore things. I binged watched all of your videos. Some twice. I am delighted to see that you have a new one. I absolutely love watching you restore these old 'useless' things into beautiful pieces. Keep up the good work and thanks for posting.
какая потрясающая вещь получилась из убитого и изъеденного комода! Так же восхищает Ваше чувство цвета. Все новые детали супер гармонично вписались.
Once again I’m speechless. Your ability to save and restore as much as possible is beyond comprehension. Gorgeous!
Man, you are so good! I love watching true Craftsmanship. Your work is awesome.
You are one very very talented person, loved watching this video. P.S love the no talking it helps me to concentrate on the work you are doing.
Howdy from Houston, TX. I love watching a true carpenter work. You remind me of my father as he loved building, fixing & repairing anything, but especially wood. I miss the smell of fresh cut wood. My dad would take the sawdust, mix it with paraffin & make fire starters for my mom’s Girl Scout group when we went camping, which was often. Anyway, love seeing your work! You’re a master.
And now the dresser is smiling. Great work! It looks brand new and shiny.
Once again, it was an amazing transformation! I swear, you could take a pile of firewood and make it into something beautiful. You are by far my favorite furniture channel!
Now I know you just go measure, measure, chop, saw, saw, zip, zap, glue glue , nail nail and it’s done. All very elementary to you, but to me it’s magical to watch. Especially the dovetail joints. 😂 I’m a sucker for a hand made dovetail… thank you for a well made channel. I’m a fan 🪭 😊 oh! And lathe work, don’t forget lathe work, mesmerising… 😮
here is a restoration in the pure art of respect and tradition of the profession.
I would have no fear in providing my furniture to this person
because with these videos the person, shows us that old things can actually have a second life and still give satisfaction.
thank you and well done!
Just look at how beautiful this turned out!! It looks like it must have back in the late 1800s. I like to see when you do all the carving and turning, these videos are soothing, relaxing and interesting to me. You do such a nice job on all your pieces. Thank you! ❤
The colour of that wood once finished looks so deep and rich. Really beautiful. It really amazes me, the mindset of a woodworker/restorer. To the unskilled eye the furnature looks like trash for the bonfire but here we see, no, it is a valuable and beautiful comodity to be enjoyed for another several generations. For sure, id take this over brand new Ikea junk every day of the week.
Gosto muito deste tipo
De vídeo sou brasileira e aqui temos muitas madeiras nobres,sempre que posso mando restaurar os móveis antigos.Parabens pelo trabalho trabalho,a natureza agradece.
Слов нет,одни эмоции.Это невероятная реставрация.Вы супер иастер своего дела
Greetings from Michigan, USA. You are truly a master craftsman, AT. I really enjoy watching your videos. Great job!
Gorgeous! So nice to see that beautiful treasures are actually restored & refinished not painted all the time.
What a pleasure to see this worn out beauty restored to its elegant self. Thanks so much for bringing us along. Masterful restoration.
I'm in complete awe. To watch a Master save such a damage piece of furniture was so amazing. The blending of the old and the new is seamless. It's a stunningly beautiful. Bravo!!!
Once again, it's great to see you showing off your varied knowledge and skills to restore this well-worn piece of furniture. You worked hard and meticulously and the dresser turned out very beautiful. Congratulations master!
You, sir, are a true artist. Your transformation of a completely worn out peice of junk into furniture that anyone would be proud to have in their is just remarkable. Thank you for the video!
Disaster -master , no better word for that...
And i always love the - before - and - after -.
One more Mission nearly impossible, very well done.
Chapeau!!!
I don’t even have the words to say how impressed I am! You just performed a miracle on this piece! It is absolutely beautiful!
Очень нравится как работает мастер,нет лишних движений, все очень профессионально и конечный результат тоже всегда впечатляющий!!! Посмотрел почти все видео! Здорово! К мебели и реставрации не имею никакого отношения, но как работает и все это снимает без излишней подробности нравится!!! Много лайков,хвала мастеру!!!!!
You are so fortunate to have a top and bottom corner detail to copy.
I have my grandmother's 90-100 year-old dresser that has similar drawer construction and problems, so this will help me when I start work to refurbish it.
This one is now my new favorite restoration. Masterful restoration, as always!
You are a magician, Sir. I am truly watching a master’s hands. Awe-struck!😮😮
Thank you for saving this very beautiful piece of furniture and giving it back its former dignity. Your craftsmanship is exceptionally good and admirable. Also worth mentioning is the great compilation and progression of your video 🙂
Wow!! This was a labor of Love!!❤
You are in the trajectory of Thomas Johnson!! Keeping things "looking old" is the right way to restore❤
Ну что, началось волшебство? Буду смотреть с большим удовольствием!!! Спасибо
Your reputation as a genius remains intact. You just whip through hints I have trouble with, like bubbled veneer,and I always benefit from watching you work. Beautiful job! 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If I hadn’t seen all the work you did on this piece, I would swear it’s a brand new item bought from a master craftsman……yesterday! You really have all the right gear to do this kind of thing from beginning to end, and perfectly! Wonderful attention to detail! I love seeing rotten old thing get “fixed properly”! Wonderful!🇦🇺
Your patience is unmatched. So incredible to watch. I appreciate your approach to restoration and sharing it with your audience. It’s perfection.
My favorite restorer❤ I always wait to see your videos😊
I've watched quite a few of this guy's restoration projects, and I haven't seen ANYONE more skilled than him. This is a fabulous result displaying his great skills at his art, and he doesn't need any pet cats or dogs in his videos to creep into the affections of the pet-loving viewers. A very rewarding watch for me, and I don't know the difference between a screw and a nail.
You are a true wonder worker, the results are beautiful, your work is the best I have seen anywhere.
That end product is sensational! Probably better than new.
Another incredible furniture restoration! Still one of my very favorite channels to watch!💜
I was watching how meticulous you restored this dresser. My father was a joiner/carpenter. He also restored furniture for his customers. I used to watch him work. This brought back memories. Thank you. You have a new subscriber 👏
Как всегда достойно восхищения!
Love this video. Really showed how looks can be deceiving. The money for the clamps alone shows that this sort of 'hobby' isn't really a hobby at all, it is skilled craftsmanship, knowledge, training and experience. Beautiful restoration. Thank you for sharing. PS: Loved the 'Clamp work of Art'. Cracked me up.
A master class in wood working I am in Awe.. thank you it was a total Joy to watch well done
You are a clever man, using many skills to counteract many years of abuse and hard work received by that 100+ years old dresser. Congratulations!
You are a true master at your craft, anybody would be honored to have one of your restorations.
Beautiful doesnt even begin to describe your work 😊
still the best furniture channel on youtube
The care and patience you put into this is amazing, well done sir!!
You Sir are the absolute best at REPLICATING missing pieces. You cease to AMAZE me. You must have a beautiful home full of beautiful repaired pieces that look just like the originals. Without invading your privacy, It would be so cool to have a video tour of all of your keepers. Think about it okay?
Yes I have thought about it. I have lots of Art Noveau chairs.
My late husband was a Carpenter, Joiner and Cabinet Maker and I loved nothing more than to watch him at work. Thank you for bringing joy back into my life.

Absolutely stunning! Seeing it at the beginning, i was not suspecting it would end up looking this gorgeous.
Великолепная работа !!!! Браво мастеру !!!!! Чудесная реставрация ❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful recovery. This old gal looks wonderful after some TLC at your hands. You're a truly talented woodworker.
What a stunning piece… and what a pleasure to watch you work! It’s difficult to tell which parts are replacements and which are original! You are truly a master of your craft!
Holy cow! That was a resurrection! Before, it was trash, but now it is a museum piece! I'm speechless. The wood grain is gorgeous, and the finish is deep and rich Yours is a rare skill!
Stunning work as always! I love how much effort you put into truly restoring a piece vs just chopping it up to rebuild from the good parts.
What makes your channel stand out from other restorers is the camera angles and the speed of the playback is perfect.
Never had any doubt you are a master at restoration and absolutely love your work ❤
The matched walnut veneer on the front of the drawers is beautiful and the turnings really give it a tremendous regal look.
Incredible restoration of a beautiful piece!! Always such a pleasure to watch a master at work!!😍😍😍❤️
Boy did this come at the perfect time. I'm working on a dresser that I thought was in pretty good condition. I spent way too much money on paint and stencils and tools and then pulled out the drawers only to find rotten wood missing sliders and missing and cracked bottoms.
Every step of this I was picturing my late father. “That’s exactly how Dad would have done it” I kept thinking. Watched him at his lathe and making dove tails for many years. Aside from his reg job working as the town carpenter for the council, he had a shop in our basement and our house always smelled of wood haha. He made 4 big chests for us, his daughters made of mahogany with cedar linings (not cheap where I live), my most treasured possession. You did an amazing job, anyone would be proud to have that in their home. Absolutely beautiful. TY ❤⭐️
One of the best restoration I've seen so far. Probably the first, in keeping the original design of a dresser.
Потрясающе. Вы волшебник.
New legs with no worm holes. I like the way you glue down original veneer ! You’re most knowledgeable also. Years ago on a loading dock in L.A. I unloaded fiberglass matt next to a container from Brazil = full of veneer in 8” by 18 ft in length. 20 pcs per bundle, and 25 bundles per pallet . I remember thinking that’s a lot of furniture. Dad and I used to watch the Amish in N. Indiana at the county fair use a 4” wide knife remove a roll from a log 1/32 thick ….. then give the roll away to folks in the crowd.
You're not gonna find that at Ikea! Thank you for saving this piece from the fire wood pile. Absolutely stunning.
Im never gonna use it, but could you do a video about your tools and machines; nane them and their purposes. Where you got them. And which ones are your favorites?? Then talk in anotger about finishes, hiw to correct or match cokors, what are the best strippers,different kinds of oil finishes, how to clean hardware; etc???😊😊
I am very impressed with your skills. Thank you for a very detailed video, and for the Polish Dad joke! 🇨🇦
Your work is ALWAYS meticulous, never expedient, always stunning, always perfect. I can watch you do what you do and only admire your skill and imagination. I think if you had been one of the engineers for NASA, the Challenger would never have blown up and we would by now be seeing McDonald's and Bass Pro Shops franchises on Mars being advertised on TV. Thans again for letting us watch while you explain how you make magic! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
Stunning. Love seeing a sad messed up piece turned back into its former beautiful self. ❤😊
Just seeing that corner detail piece made my heart beat faster. Hey, 1 says it all... Replicating it would be the not so difficult goal at least you had one to reference. ;) Good find getting those extras. Wonderful craftsmanship. Thank you.
Seriously even the original owners would not believe this restoration 👍👍👍 as good as new!!
You are more than a craftsman, you are a true artist. That chest is now a fine piece of furniture, custom-made. I don't know anyone who would not be happy to own such a beautiful piece of furniture. Bravo!
This was a wonderful restoration.
Not even the original owner would recognise this drawer 👏👏👏👏👏👏
You MUST get such a kick out of seeing the transformation, I am sure that is what keeps you doing this ! Never gets boring !
What a beautiful piece of furniture. Who knew that gorgeous wood grain on the drawers was under that awful finish. This chest of drawers will now live on for another century or two. Lovely job as always. Thank you for sharing. With best wishes from Down Under 😘💕🇦🇺.
Have you ever come upon a piece that was just too far gone to restore, or is it always a question of having someone willing to pay for the work it will take? Amazing, as always. Your videos act like very satisfying ASMR for me :)
I held my breath for 26 min.
I am in awe.
Restored with great taste❤😊
Watching you re-create decorative legs on the wood lathe is hypnotizing. Beautiful craftsmanship.
absolutely outstanding... who would've thought that beautiful wood was under that dust? Its stunning!!!!
