- I have restored dozens of Thonet chairs, but this time I wanted to do it differently....
LAZER : amzn.to/3k63wbD
Thonet chairs are most iconic chairs of all times. They started making them since 1850 and they are still made today. Their design is one of the best that has been ever invented. The chair is made out of beech that is steamed for 5 hours and then formed into metal molding. This method gives very durable structure. Rumor has it, that Thonet chair was allegedly thrown down from the Eiffel Tower to show how well made its structure is and it survived.

Hahahaha cool. The classic outro music is back. It just feels wrong without that cheesy riff
The man with a 1000 g-clamps! What craftsmanship, what integrity, what an eye for detail and also a sense of humour. I could never do any thing like this, I'm in awe of your work, bravo.
There's a saying among quilters that she who dies with the most fabric wins. I wonder if the same is true for woodworkers and clamps.
@@freethebirds3578 That would be too easy :)
I always notice the number of clamps being used! Glad I’m not the only one!

I love watching these videos and seeing a real top craftsman at work.
Imagine have these chairs in the dining room, and every one of them had a different one of those beautiful patterns they came in!
Before: "Hey that looks alright. What's the big deal?"
After: "WOW! What a difference. A TRUE restoration.
Very pretty chair! Im happy you restored it back to period appearance! It looks so much nicer!❤
Another nice restoration friend, looks good, now you can sit down and have yourself a cup of coffee, have a nice day !!!.
Ahhh yes, much better than before.
I admire your work, I watch movies with great curiosity and inspiration. Soon the old bedside tables and the dressing table were renovated with a wooden mirror from before the 1st World War
Спасибо огромное. Всегда с удовольствием наблюдаю за вашей работой. Как говорится, можно бесконечно смотреть на то, как горит огонь, течет вода и как работает Человек.
Very Beautiful!!!!💜💜💜💜💜
Gorgeous and such craftsmanship. I actually just bought this laser yesterday for my husband’s birthday. He does woodworking strictly as a hobby and I saw someone else I follow (who does woodworking/furniture restoration as hobby as well) use it, so I’m excited to give it to him. Just loving your channel, I’ve binge watched your videos this week and am in just awe at your work.
I’d never seen one of these with anything but the drilled hole pattern. This ended up very lovely
I've got one with a relief seat but it's very badly worn and barely recogniseable in some areas. The wood is stained a very dark red. My aunt wanted to get rid of the chair and gave it to me, telling me it was completely worthless. Considering she's a professional art restorer I tend to trust her.
The Thonet chair No. 14 was the first model built in the new bentwood technic (in 1850). The seat came with viennese braid. Later the seat also was built out of plywood, blank, drilled or with embossed ornament. I love the Thonet furniture. The classics as the modern ones.

Absolutely Fabulous restoration ! Came out looking like new, as strong as when it was made, and
with an improved design on the chair seat. This is where Craftsmanship meets Artistry !
Night and day transformation!! This chair is gorgeous!
Excellent. Now I know I love thonet chairs
Yeah, I like this a lot better than all the holes. Looks great!
Beautiful chair-I love the design on the seat. Tested sitting down….not a single creak. 👍🏻. Excellent job-as always.
Day and night difference,,,,,well done!
Das mit der Zange um den Schraubenzieher zu drehen ist ein wirklich guter Tipp für mich 😊
Nice restoration. Crunchy woodwork ASMR.
I love Art nouveau. Thanks Ahti for another beautiful restauration.
Смотрю и болдею, настоящий Реставратор🥰🥰🥰
Beauty-full chairs. Great job.!
Greetings from México City 🇲🇽
OMG! Amazing timing! I have two of these I need to restore and I've never attempted it before.THANK YOU!
I love the design you chose for the chair seat and the lazer was fun to watch. I am curious how the patterns were originally done as I am sure they did not have lazers when the chairs were made. Thanks for showing the old catalogue of patterns that were available, I do like the one you used, great job as usual.
My guess is that they had a big iron plate with the pattern raised above the surface, and they basically used this as a big branding iron in a press to burn the pattern into the flat seat before forming it. I've seen that sort of thing done in a lot of old films where they were making furniture, boxes, or even fancy cakes where they wanted a label on it. I don't know for a fact it was done this way here, but it seems like a reasonable guess.

You are the best of the best. Sara
Красавец венский стул. Старинная работа. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Beautiful job! Cheers from Minnesota, USA.
У меня есть стул, абсолютно идентичный этому во всём, кроме того что у него нет ни каких отверстий в сиденье. Он стоит у меня на веранде и последние пятьдесят лет я сижу на нём, когда летом пью чай и смотрю на свой сад. А до этого на нём сидел мой дед.
Но он в совершенной исправности, только сильно потемнел за прошедшие годы.
Вот посмотрел и подумал - а может обновить? Или уж пусть внуки, если он будет им ещё нужен.
Отличная работа, как всегда. Посмотрел с удовольствием.
Another beautiful restoration.
Beautiful day. I admire your work. You have no idea how much I would like to meet you here in Slovakia. I have a chest of drawers over 100 years old from my dear old mother, it is damaged and I have no one to restore it.
Thanks for your video. I also enjoy restoring old furniture!
My great aunt used to have these chairs in her small kitchen
Brings back wonderful memories
Not sure if my aunt has them stored in her loft now x

Wow! Love the fancy printer machine thing 😃

If I wasn't impressed by now, I would be now... Homemade torque screwdriver!! A man after my own dad (heart) ❤
Absolutely beautiful
The vice grip on the screwdriver trick you used is amazing, and I can’t believe I never thought of that! My day job is signage at a zoo, and we get a lot of stuck screws, and I’m totally using that! Beautiful work!!
Absolutely gorgeous xxxx
Hello mister beautiful restoration good job well done my friend
Gorgeous! Another job very well done sir.
Also, "crunchy woodwork ASMR"- LOL Love it! 😆
What does ASMR stand for?
From Wikipedia: Autonomous sensory meridian response, sometimes auto sensory meridian response, is a tingling sensation that usually begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. A pleasant form of paresthesia, it has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia and may overlap with frisson.
From Oxford Languages: noun
a feeling of well-being combined with a tingling sensation in the scalp and down the back of the neck, as experienced by some people in response to a specific gentle stimulus, often a particular sound.
"ASMR is triggered by things like whispering voices, paper tearing, and scalp massage"
8:56 These oval head screws are quite hard to find! I needed one to complete a restoration of a pair of Thonet 233 style chairs. Could only find them in stainless steel so used it on the underside where it wouldn't easily be seen, and hand coloured the head with a marker pen to match the others. Your video has given me some useful tips - thanks!
8:45 Can't see whether you used glue - should the legs be glued into the seat base or press-fit? Thanks.
So beautiful!!! Good work!
Beautiful craftsmanship.😍
Awesome. Beautiful.
Great job. It's a beautiful chair
So beautiful and smooth. Xx
Sooooo much better! You set the standard for the furniture repair and restoration I watch on RUclips. Beautiful new toy you’ve got for yourself, too. Look forward to your next job/miracle/masterpiece.
Another amazing job.
How beautiful became the chair with that ornament on the seat! You delight us with your videos! Congratulations, it is very pleasant to watch your work!⚘
Beautiful as usual. I like that the videos you post are so varied with what you choose to restore. Thank you for sharing your talent!
Brilliant - thank you for sharing! ✌🏻🎨☕️
Very nice restoration and video 👍
Thanks for the history of the chair, I have never heard of them and appreciated the new knowledge! Great job! God bless you and yours.👏👏👏👏👏😊
Beautiful job. Congratulations
A man with a new toy. Couldn’t be happier
Such care and knowledge. Stay safe.
Amazing as always!
Excellent work!
Since I first saw your videos it became the most interesting way to spend my leisure time. Not only watching . I started to restore old pieces of furniture of our family. God, its so interesting! Thank you - you have changed my life. I am an amature oil painter, people say not the bad one, but restoring old things seems more interesting for me.
Beautiful restoration! So glad i found your channel! 💙👍
Having a laser machine for a project like this is a definite plus, but then so is having all those other skills which you have. Beautiful outcome! 🙂👍
Very nice restoration.
Beautiful work.
Very nice job, looks great.
I love what you do.
Beautiful! I have 4 chairs Tonette and they are verry nice!
Wow 100 times better
