Some of you asked what exactly this piece of furniture is, and I wasn't actually sure. So, I did some research. I believe it's a bedside or medical cabinet with a Bauhaus design, a style originating from Germany in the 1920s. Pretty cool!
I always wonder if the person who sold you the piece, watches your channel and is then blown away by your creative transformations! Absolutely incredible!!
Man, I've been having a bad work week and this felt like a soothing balm to my nerves. Your patience blows my mind every time. The smooth Spongebob got me bad lmao
i love how serene these videos are. restoration videos tend to be chaotic when sped up too much but yours are so tranquil, even without background music. love these, so relaxing! and of course the final looks are absolutely astonishing :D
The quality of video is so good, a story in itself. Love the animation, text and texture of sounds. So much extra work for you but I really appreciate your efforts. Thank you. Happy Holidays 🌲☃️
Fantastic transformation...as always. Very satisfying to see trash transformed to treasure. This scratches me right where I itch! By the way, I'm a Gen X'r with lots of experience, but I learned two important things today! 1) You can give everyday steel a chrome-like finish! I had no idea! 2) I have used 600grit for wet sanding in the past, but never knew there was a 2000grit! I have a very rusty tri square with wood handle, brass edge and metal ruler. I am going to do all of your techniques to bring back it's original lustre. My Dad gave it to me recently, and we build some things together, so it has sentimental value. Thanks! From Toronto
@@ModernMakeovers Thanks! I started working on restoring the tri-square. looks really good, however, I can't seem to get the deeply embedded rust out way below the surface. I have tried a 24hr soak in vinegar and baking soda and sanding with 80grit and WD-40. Am I right to assume some deep black stains might be impossible to remove?
I saw an aluminum piece polished by wet sanding with soapy water. It had a mirror finish when complete. I love your videos and the lengths you go to in order to please our eyes!!
I love how in so many of your videos you include little side shots of the nature. Your style of video editing is for the tranquility of working with your hands. The nature shots really add to that.
Your attention to detail and care for every individual piece of these items is very admirable. You also have e a very good taste in color and style. I love these videos!
Your attention to detail is amazing. It's brilliant to watch you transform these unwanted items into beautiful treasures everyone would want in their homes.
I just love your videos. I love watching how the piece comes together, but I also really appreciate that you give furniture that most people would dispose of a second lease of life
I’m nitpicking, but the only thing I’d have considered doing differently was painting/prepping the hinge so it was chrome to match the base. That being said I appreciate you showing how you can achieve a quality product no matter what finish you’re using - stain, professional sprayer, or rattle can paint. Beautiful work as always!
Mate, A quicker way to do the screws is put them in a drill, and spin them in your right hand and hit them with the orbital sander in your left hand. I did this with like 50 brass dome headed screws.
The attention to detail here when doing tedious work like sanding is very impressive. I love the mirror finish acheived on the once-rusted metal frame.
I think you may be one of the most underrated RUclipsrs I've seen. I found you're channel recently and first of all I think I'm in love with you. You're incredibly talented and all of the work I've seen you do is gorgeous, almost as gorgeous as yourself. Your videos are already great to begin with, but then you come in with the subtle edits and it just bumps the whole thing up to the next level. Your videos are the hits of serotonin that I desperately need in my life.
Your photography and editing are outstanding. I felt like I should be wearing safety glasses myself…and I swear the sawdust made me sneeze. I only wish you would post more often!
Your videos are always so satisfying to watch. I love that you don't seem to throw many things away, always saving things to be used for something else. Love the little animations put in there, too.
As I said before you are INSANE. Crazy talent, crazy craftsmanship, and an insane inspiration. Have to say I am beyond impressed more like mind blown. So this "alligatored" on you? Sorry, but it is comforting to know that I am not the only one with some bad luck here and there. A couple questions: Since this finish showscases and magnifies every tiny imperfection, would a "sanding primer" have been useful? Also, will the beautiful metal retain this shine or would a wax or some protective coating be beneficial? My 2 cents: the handle is wonderful, but to me, a vintage chrome handle would be better. In my area, there are 2 used restaurant supply "junkyards", and I am sure you could get a great handle from one of those places. I appreciate your humor. This vid actually made my day. Thanks.
Always love your videos. Your before and after, the whole process in between, wow! Cudos to how you put these videos together also. So enjoyable to watch. Thank you!
No lengthy commentary, annoying music or painted stencils in sight! Soooo refreshing. Amazingly well explained through mesmerising videography. Thank you.
I appreciate your sense of whimsy nearly as much as I appreciate your skill set, attention to detail, and work ethic. With respect to this small cabinet, it was designed as a bedside table. Even in the first third of the 20th C, much of the patient-related hospital items would have been fired enamel over metal, to stand up to constant cleaning with harsh products.
It's so cute. It almost looks like a safe, or maybe a tiny fridge. So neat. I honestly wondered if you would keep it sort of "as is" in the design because it looked so weird at first. But you made it look so awesome and retro! Love it!

This piece would not go for under $2,500. A true antique. But I don’t know if it devalues that much because of the complete restoration. 🤔
A true work of art! It’s gorgeous!
❤️
It is a medical bedside Bauhaus style so the red color.... Mmmmmm
I want this !!! Beautiful job.
I've never seen someone who is so dexterous with their feet and toes. Very impressive how you applied that wood finish to the handle!
😂😂😂
Who’s gonna tell him?
😂😂😂Wish I'd have said that!
His hand is in a old sock to apply the finish.
@@Traumawomen ^ Sherlock
I kept thinking if a mini fridge could fit inside the cabinet it would have made a super cute mini bar.
WOW, Andy! You really could’ve fooled me into thinking this piece was ALL metal and not (partly) wood! Terrific job! 👍🏼👍🏼
I honestly thought the cabinet was metal when I saw the thumbnail. To get plywood to look like that!! Mind=blown

Me too. Work is so bad this week, I knew his video would ease some tension. Worked like a charm...now, I gotta get back to work! ;)

Often the only difference between a good restorer and a superb one is the application of great diligence. Awesome work!

Oh, and where did you find that cool yellow sanding sponge 7:54
@@canadude6401 It’s a hand sanding sponge by Gator from Rona! Good luck on your work :)

Wow you know your grit! 😄 That was brilliant to watch
This would be a perfect little bar, with the glasses lined up inside and the bottles organized on top! I love this style, and you made it perfect!
I love the red and the piece. I'm also glad it isn't black. The chrome turned out beautiful
OMG!! Silk purse from a sow’s ear! Brilliant! Daebak!
Just WOW! I'm not sure if I am more impressed by the polished metal or the detail of the handle.
I love how in so many of your videos you include little side shots of the nature.
Your style of video editing is for the tranquility of working with your hands.
The nature shots really add to that.
I have said it before but aside from your furniture creativity, your videos are equally worthy of praise. That handle though! 😍
As always I'm Sooo impressed with your patience. It's so obvious this is a labor of love for you. Very satisfying to watch.
Not only do you do great work, your filming is fantastic. And the birds!
Love the new editing style, love the ladybug. Your work is always stunning, thank you for sharing
I wish you an amazing Holiday Season...Blessings to you and yours...
Love, love the whimsical feel to the reel and I haven't seen the final product yet! Awesome
Everything about this video is just perfect! Especially I am obsessed the custom made retro-vibe handle. Cheers!!!
What a great find. What an epic finished project. That Christmas red...chefs kiss.
Keep doing you 🌟

Your attention to detail is amazing. It's brilliant to watch you transform these unwanted items into beautiful treasures everyone would want in their homes.
So much sanding, so much patience, such beautiful results !
I love how you are not only a great with furniture, but also with film!!
Great work Andy!! Thanks for the Flitz love!! 👍👍👀
Thanks for making awesome products! 😁
Not only do I love all the furniture flips. Your special affects are very well done too!
You make the restoration beautiful because of the perfection of your work! (WOW)
I love how you retain the soul of each vintage piece, but you may choose different clothing & jewelry for each to wear.
The red is so beautiful!

I actually would have loved to do that. Unfortunately, the hinge was brass, so the chrome look wasn’t an option 🥲
Though the same
We had that style furniture when I was a kid. My grandmothers kitchen set had that style chairs. I never knew it had a name!
This one was a good restoration and upgrade, it looks awesome. Take care, thanks 😊
Absolutely incredible. Your craftsmanship and editing skills impress me every time.

Your remake really enhanced the design and integrity of this beauty! 👏 🏆
Lol! This cabinet turned out outstanding. What patience and great transformation. Thanks for sharing.
....oh man, turned out fabulous!!!...impressive recuperating the crome!!!!...love the idea of the sock🤙
What an object of BEAUTY you turned this stand into! God bless you 😮!
Your patience and attention to detail is astounding.
You are a Master.
Keen eye.
You make labor intensive projects look easy.
Love you patience and diligence.
Thank you for your kind words ❤️
That turned out amazing. So cute with the Santa's inside and I love the red!! Good choice of color 👏💯🎅
Marvelous, whimsical journey to pristine rejuvenation. Thank you. Well done!
Just when i thought the metal part couldn't get any shinier🤯
Your photography and editing are outstanding. I felt like I should be wearing safety glasses myself…and I swear the sawdust made me sneeze. I only wish you would post more often!
It's cute. Would make a good mini bar.
Thanks for the vid.
So cool!! You always think outside the box!
Fabulous outcome Andy, it’s gorgeous. I was impressed with the brilliant finish of both the wood and the steel. Beautiful as always ♥️
Ok, you got me with the SmoothBob
You have such a great eye! It's amazing that you saw the potential in nasty piece of furniture, and you indeed gave it a new life 👏💯
dude i absolutely love your work, i find genuine joy out of just watching your videos, thank you andy:)
you just made me NOT hate painted furniture 😍🔥
I love it! I have found that priming a piece in pink, grey or black before a red coat reduces the amount of red coats I need to do.
Amazing! You really transformed this piece.👏👏
Your videos are always so satisfying to watch. I love that you don't seem to throw many things away, always saving things to be used for something else. Love the little animations put in there, too.
Very cool retro vibe 👏
This man has very good sense oh humour, not only good skill 😍😍😍
My first thought was an ice box❗️Made of metal! Terrific job‼️I’m impressed with your eye to detail & patience as well. Great video👏🏼🤩

У вас великолепное чувство юмора.

thank you. I have a chrome and metal step chair that needs refinishing so this helps me out.
That handle elevated this piece to the next level, it's inspiring me to learn how to make my own handles!
That’s bloody amazing!!!!! I was salivating watching the metal becoming shinier. I LOVE IT!!!!
Hallo Lady 🤣🤣🤣🤣 wonderful👍
That’s a cool piece! Excited to watch the video
Wow! This is a stunner. In Bauhuas style you are true to your materials. Great attention to detail.
Your work is wonderful & even your Santa’s are perfect. 💕♥️💕
Such skill & patience I really admire you!

What a labor of love! It’s obvious that you truly love what you are doing here!
I love the attention to the nature around you too. The pauses to watch a lady bug, or grasshopper, walk by in your videos always makes me smile. 😊
Flawless like every time! Love the red shine and the shape of the handle! Great work!
You deserve all the praise you've got- and more!
I might have liked a really dark red almost a burgundy for 20's style but it looks great! Strong work there!
From Bauhaus to badass. An amazing new retro look.
That handle alone was a masterpiece. You are a true craftsman. Great job!
I can't tell you how nice it is to finally see someone who knows how spray paint properly. 👌
Andy, as always you never disappoint!!! You’re a beast!!!
Beautifol!!!!! ❤️❤️👍👍👍🐞🐞. Slovakia. 🇸🇰
It's so cute. It almost looks like a safe, or maybe a tiny fridge. So neat. I honestly wondered if you would keep it sort of "as is" in the design because it looked so weird at first. But you made it look so awesome and retro! Love it!
That piece is so cool!! Never seen one like that before.
Nice work. You dont see a lot of that style of post modern furniture. I like it all except handle, but I have to hand it to you on an excellent job.
A love your makeovers and your videos editing! Beautiful work as always 😊
I would NEVER have picked red but it looks absolutely breathtaking! Exactly why I'm not making RUclips videos! 😂😂😂 Just beautiful!
Just watched it again for a Friday night chill! Looks as good as I remembered it...
And again...😂😂😂
I like how you incorporate nature into your videos
another wonderful refurbishment. too bad there weren’t two so you could have matching bedside tables!
Your videos are always so satisfying, they even put me to sleep awsome job🤗
