  • In this video I will restore Art Noveau chair from the beginning of the 20´th century. It was brought to by by the client, who got it with the house that he bought. It has rather unusual design, because of the black color and high backrest. I really enjoyed this restoration process.
    My favorite tools:
    Kärcher steam cleaner: amzn.to/3jltvLf
    Bessey edge clamps: amzn.to/3A6i7K3
    Dovetail jig: amzn.to/2VeM7Vw
    Workshop vacuum: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...
    Random orbital sander: amzn.to/3A925PK
    Oscillating Spindle Sander amzn.to/3lq9t4X
    Camera: amzn.to/3e5CG0V
    Led goggles: amzn.to/3we7mq1
    Protective shield: amzn.to/3Pnthmj

    Watching this man restoring furniture is one of the most rewarding, entertaining, educational and professional experiences,ever. As I've said once before, if these restored items could speak, they'd sing his praises. He's what to furniture restoration as Michaelangelo was to fine art 🎨. Well done, Sir 👍👏

    I'm 72 years old and I can totally agree that the sheet metal seat was quite the surprise. I've been refinishing furniture since I was 20 and I've never seen anything like it. Awesome work as usual. Where were you when I was refinishing and repairing the 1920's waterfall dressing table? I could have used some advice😁
