    Someone gof a bit happy with the stapples. 😂ive never seen furniture held together with a million staples before. That is the craziest thing ive ever seen.

      Some old paint types do not come off well with stripper. Shiny very old enamel paint is one.

    There are some pretty mean comments on here. Please don’t get disheartened by them, just morons who can’t say a kind word. It’s a great old piece and was sympathetically restored. I hope you treated those awful wood worms to a respective bath!! One tip for you. Keep the head of the hammer (flat part that strikes nail ) clean and shiny. Use a bit of end of life sandpaper for this. You are ten times more less likely to miss a clean strike on a nail. Plus, as you used a decent headed pin put of piece of cloth or if you have it or a piece of real leather ( from an old shoe ) over the head and then strike it. No nasty scratches or dings to be seen. If your a beginner then things can only get better. I hope I’m not incorrect in that point. Good luck and invest in some good tools if you can.

    Вы просто молодец, что не превратили в глянецевую новую. Вещь с историей... Отдельно отмечу звукоряд. Честно, наслаждалась музыкой. Единственное... Примите совет - не затягивайте показ шлифовки. То, что это чертовски трудоемкая работа, понятно из первых кадров. Да, великолепная Музыка спасла просмотр для меня, но другие могут не досмотреть, а ведь финиш работы поистине великолепен! 🎉 От души желаю новых , восхищающих в финале работ❤❤❤

    The piece appears farm made or made by a local maker rather than a manufacuring company. It's a nice old piece. A few suggestions for you to consider as you continue to next projects. When using sawdust in glue for a filler, use finer dust for easier sanding and blending in. An old tea strainer is great for sifting the sawdust. Because pine can look a bit splotchy when adding a stain or colored finish, you can try putting on a coat of wax-free shellac before adding any color... it will help to even out the grain. For older pieces where you opt to leave in the history, wax as a final finish often helps to blend the imperfections & soften the dings & scrapes... gives it a more cohesive look. Final note, I've recently learned the term for leaving a bit of history (dings, etc.) in your restoration...sympathetic restoration. Some folks may not appreciate the look, but it is your choice.

    I guess this is 'better' but the finished product is unfortunate. I've watched so many expert qualified restorers on RUclips sites, that I know a master-craftsman when I see his/her work.
    Perhaps this is early in the start of your craftsman's journey and if so, continue! I wish you well.

    I appreciate that you don’t use a chemical stripper, but so much work!! Just when I thought there could be no more paint, another piece would appear. 😂 All of those staples!!! I call this the Frankenstein cabinet. I’m sure I would have never taken on such a monumental task. I like the two-toned look and appreciate that you created a piece of furniture from what almost everyone would have considered trash. Thank you for the video. ❤
