While editing my restoration videos, I remove the scenes that I think are unnecessary or long. Of course, I used clamps in the restoration of this stool.
Why the metal bar on the seat? It added no strength. The line from the break was minimal compared to all the other splits in the seat. MY OPINION. Maybe there is a higher selling value with "different." I am just a plain-Jane kine of girl.
You have great taste Sherrie, what you mention is one of the things i like about his restorations , keeping the history and not trying to make it perfect
So very nice to see old things which most people would simply throw out brought back to life and usefulness. Perfectly sound wood with lots of 'life experience' reborn. Love it!
BUT WHY the metal??? If he had put two screws on either side of the joint to use the metal to keep it from ever seporatering again I would have understood its use but to drill through the joint just weakens it!
Just what I love doing. Scour alleys and find a piece people throw out that has character and is worth restoring. Working on an old chair now that needs caning next. Pretty rough to start but am proud of the way it's turning out. You gave me ideas for an old stool with a screw turn that comes next. Seat is split also. Thanx ✌🏽
Desde La Paz-BOLIVIA, gracias a las personas que trabajan en RESTOMANIAC, esta demostración de restaurar la madera me hizo comprender que no necesariamente es cambiar la pieza maltratada por una nueva, que esto significa NO ESTAR PREPARADO PARA ECONOMIZAR, NO ESTAR PREPARADO PARA CONSERVAR EL PLANETA TIERRA, NO ESTAR PREPARADO PARA SER IMAGINATIVO Y NO ESTAR PREPARADO PARA CONSTRUIR NUEVAMENTE. Muchísimas gracias de nuevo, esta demostración me elevó un nivel más alto.
Love your restorations …. Curious about the objects that you restore it would be nice if you gave a little background on the object, perhaps where you found it whether it be in an attic an antique store or on eBay 😊👍🇨🇦❤️
best part of your channel you save wood, and that saves trees, other channel wastes or replace wood, they cut big logs to make small handle or parts👍👍👍
Shows that there is no single approach to restoration. I liked the off-center placement of the metal bar and the use of an olive oil finish. I should mention that care should be taken when sanding a tenon face. The video shows that this compromises a snug fit with the mortise. I learned this the hard way.
I’m giving a go on this video, but I had to make a comment. The wood is suffering with the way you are getting those nails out. There is tools for it, that won’t hurt the wood so badly. I would use a nail puller for that.
Just found your channel. Very much enjoyed the project with such brilliant results...and it was done without all that chatter that is so distracting. Excellent!
First, great job. However some constructive criticism. When gluing the two halves together, it is actually better not to sand the mating surfaces, just ensure they are clean. This allows for a completely uniform joint to occur. Regarding the metal bar, it is a nice touch, but I would recommend using inletting black next time you do something similar. Gouge out the rough area, like you did, then apply the inletting black to the bottom side of the metal and place it in the groove. The inletting black will transfer to the wood and show exactly where you need to remove material, creating a perfect glove like fit (this is something I do often in custom stockmaking). Last, finish the wood prior to assembly. In this case, the wood was cracked and had tons of open pores. A perfect candidate for either shelf bought sealer or a sanded oil finish, where you essentially wet sand the finish into the wood which utilizes the saw dust created by sanding to create a perfect filler. These methods are much more tedious, but result in a restoration that retains the age of the wood, but properly finishes and protects it for years to come.
The old rule of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" would leave the base of this stool alone and just remove the top and repair as needed. However, you could say the same thing about my comment as you did a good job.
Questo sgabello era molto rovinato!!... Nessuno avrebbe avuto il coraggio di restaurarlo!... Ma hai avuto quel coraggio e tanta pazienza , che hai dato una nuova possibilità allo sgabello molto danneggiato!!!... Bravissimo!!... ❤😊
I am also of the opinion of 'no metal'. It was 100% wood and it should have been maintained that way. If a reinforcement was required, a bow tie would have been a better choice
Why should it have been maintained that way? He owns it and he rebuilt it so it should be whatever the way he wants it. Go buy one and leave it be all wood
👏👏👏👏 мастер у вас золотые руки. Я доволен, всё как по маслу. Приятно смотреть за вашим трудом. Спасибо, старье стал молодым. Только можете ответить на один вопрос, кусок металла зачем? Спасиб за передачу. 👍👍👍👍
Большое спасибо за ваши комментарии и лайки. Я использовал металлический стержень исключительно в декоративных целях, но большинству людей он не понравился 😊
Absolutely stunning restoration mate. I thought you were going to fix the seat or restore it assembled. In hindsight, you were right on track and produced a stunning piece. I especially liked the burn marks left on the seat. I recently did the same with my father’s shaving box he made during WW2. He forever left burning cigarettes on things and burnt them. The restored piece is now a testament to him.

Loved what you did to this stool. Very original the metal bat in the 'almost-middle' makes a lot of sens to me, gives it this touch of a uniqueness and sculptural. I also like much that there is no music. Great video, m'loocking forward to some more... ; )) greetings from Quebec
As soon as you added that steel flat bar to the seat, this went from a restoration to a hack job. A fine hardwood of a different color would’ve been a much better choice.
I initially thought adding the metal strip was a mistake. Or at least you should have given it a corresponding patina. But it eventually gave several ideas. Good move.
It would have been nice with a cross made of different coloured wood inlaid on the seat. Good job, like that you kept the seat as is with all the flaws.
My thoughts; the metal bar or bracing at the top is unnecessary; one, it added extra weight to the upper part of the stool, which could affect the four legs. Secondly, it would have been ideal if the brace was just an ordinary strong wood and underneath instead of the top of the stool. But above all, he did an excellent restoration on the nearly collapsed stool, and his skills are credible. I just came across his channel, and I have subscribed immediately. Excellent job, and many thanks for bringing it back to life.
Yet another under restored restoration , nice work and the olive oil / wax finish is perfect . One thing i would suggest is dowels through the joins , it will strengthen it a lot . Its just what i need , cigarette burns included )) Take care , regards from Ukraine
Thank you so much! I have an old stool that’s cracked exactly like this. Fortunately it’s in a wrought iron base and that just needs cleaning and paint.
While editing my restoration videos, I remove the scenes that I think are unnecessary or long. Of course, I used clamps in the restoration of this stool.
Maybe show us with just a pic after the camp up. So people know but you don't have to show that whole process as a video.
removing nail was the trickiest part.
Why the metal bar on the seat? It added no strength. The line from the break was minimal compared to all the other splits in the seat.
MY OPINION.
Maybe there is a higher selling value with "different." I am just a plain-Jane kine of girl.
@@lourias i would have used 2 pcs of brass. one to cover the crack and one on the other side to keep it even.
@@JerroldKrenek okay. That makes more sense than anything I was thinking. Thanks.
Brass inlay, my personal preference. Beautiful restoration! ❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
I love that everyone is giving out constructive criticism like this person asked for any of it. Go make your own stool if you don't like their's.
Very nice idea 😊
A real cutie. Love how you saved the seat instead of replacing it. You kept the character and charm of your stool with the burn marks. Great job....
Thank you 😊

Love This … that steel bar looks so great against the old, old, old wood stool … very eclectic
Thank you very much :)
I love the old stool without the metal piece, but now that I see the finished stool I absolutely love it!❤️
Thank you 😊

Здорово! Прекрасная работа! Огромное спасибо за перевод.
Спасибо за интерес и поддержку :)
Как на холодный металл садиться?
That piece of metal on the top was completely unnecessary. Otherwise nice job.
The metal bar is unnecessary but, I think the metal bar added as a decorative accent looks good.
I agree 👍
Transformation, not restoration, in my opinion. Nevertheless, great job.
A wider bar could have been centered.
I also agree

Excellent work! This inspires me to restore a stool I picked up recently at an estate sale. 😀
Yes man, I told you to restore that stool 😁 Thanks 🤗
@@Restomaniac Yes you did! I started on it last evening!
Looks even more precious after restoration. It not about money to buy a new piece instead, It’s about the joy to turn something into a new image.
Thank you very much for your comments :)
Great restoration. Love your cats, they are gorgeous.
Thank you so much 😊🤗😽
Such a great video. I loved how you used hand tools and not power tools (power drill not withstanding). The result is beautiful and not over-restored.

If you use that outside on a hot day, be careful! Also, I’m glad you didn’t sand out it’s history.

I never considered olive oil! 👍🏼👍🏼 It's beautiful btw
Thank you very much 😊
you can hide the hole by putting glue and wood dust...and finish it with dark oak stain..simple and easy..
I adore the metal bar on the top! It renders unique the piece!
Thank you very much 😊🤗
Real DIY lol other channels use lots of power tool we generally don't have but it's simple and nice process very good bro impressive
Thank you very much for your kind words 😊🤗
ЗдОрово! Прям почувствовала как табуреточка ожила, задышала. 👏 😀
Your restoration work is meticulous and the final product is stunning.
Thank you very much 😊🤗
Nice wooden job brother. Like from India.
Thank you very much 😊🤗
Not the biggest fan of the metal decoration, but love the stool, keep the good work!
Thanks.
Hella dope results @Restomaniac!
What a gorgeous piece. Love the metal; gives it more character.

Good job better than new. That metal bar was a nice touch.
Thank you 😊
So cool to watch. End result is gorgeous. Makes one want to sit on the stool.
Thank you very much 😊
Amei o restauro. Ficou lindo sem perder a idade e uso do banquinho.
Muito obrigado :)
That piece of metal is actually pretty darn cool

@@Restomaniac Oh, A big 'far in-between'! in my youth I've stayed in Istanbul for some weeks. Gosh this was kind of 45 years ago 😊

Good job. If I had done that, I would have sanded the old screws a little bit, and use them instead of star screws, but that's me...
😊😊👍
Nice job. I wonder what a brass bar would look like across the top? Neat idea, to use metal there.
As soon as you added that steel flat bar to the seat, this went from a restoration to a hack job. A fine hardwood of a different color would’ve been a much better choice.
