Simply amazing! Too bad the original craftspeople can't see how you have lovingly given this piece of our history a new life. Hopefully, one of them watches your channel. How amazing would that be if they did and reached out to you. As always, your finished piece is absolutely beautiful!
that would be amazing. it has happened in the past
I love that you restore these old time worn pieces. This especially touched me because I worked as a practice manager for an OB/GYN for several years. Our equipment wasn’t this old but I still appreciate the time you spent bringing the beauty back to this piece that probably served a doctor very well. Your work is spectacular, Barry. Thanks for sharing!
love this comment!
I particularly liked this video. My husband retired as covid interrupted our world. He is a family practice physician and practiced more than 60 years! He had an exam table very similar to the one you are refinishing and other matching pieces to this. They were in very good condition, I can't remember what happened to them, but he used for years! Thank you.
I bet he is so happy that he didn’t inject anyone with the thing that ruined my mothers life, giving her heart issues. His conscience must be clear
I love this comment. Thank you for sharing
You were fortunate that the vinyl was intact. Beautiful work as always.
@sew...
What wonderful memory! Thank you for sharing.
@@MissDelia...what "thing" ?
Just saw one virtually identical to this one on Letgo from a seller in San Jose, CA for $900. Such a beautiful piece!! Had no idea that even medical equipment was made so artfully back in the day!!
i saw a few others listed as well. Always interesting to find them
I thoroughly enjoyed this. You are truly skilled and I love your appreciation for historical pieces
Thank you very much!
I'm thinking how could I use this in my house? Its that beautiful. Art Deco was certainly a unique style. Thank you Barry for another good refinishing post.
Others have suggested maybe using as a buffet
I'm thinking the same - for some strange reason I love it and want it, but firstly where would I put it and whatever would I use it for 🙂
That is a beautiful piece.
thank you
wow! .... interesting piece to acquire! .... lots of work! .... beautiful result ... well done ad ...
thank you for all your support
Beautiful exam table.
Thank you 🤗
There was a different mindset amongst the builders of yesterday. Time moves on I suppose and the only constant in life is change I accept. The availability of different materials with different qualities and the pairing down to necessity of form over function has form of its own I guess. Still nice to see people like yourself paying appropriate homage to this chunk of artisanry.
Thank you so much!
I sooooo love these historical restoration videos, I learn something new about American history (I’m European) almost everytime
Thank you 👍🏻🇩🇪
Barry, you did something very interesting at 11:40 to create a template for the veneer replacement. Did you invent that technique? I've watched a lot of furniture repair videos online and never seen this before -- it seems like a much better way to hide a patch than cutting straight lines.
i have seen others do it, and the method works well. thanks for the great feedback
Omg...... Now that is a first! This calls out for an attaboy ! You sure have come a long way from the first videos!
thank you so much Neil!
This is a great subject for your channel. Thank you for sharing! I love your channel.😺
thank you!
That turned out beautiful. Love the history that came with it
So beautiful work, thanks for sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous!🎉
The colour is glorious, and I'm extremely jealous of that piece, not that I'd know what to do with it! I have a 1920s upright dental cabinet in my bedroom - all the shallow drawers are perfect for jewellery and accessories. It didn't need restoring , it was in near-perfect condition. I managed to get rid of the medical smell of the drawers and cupboards, but I left the top glass cabinet still smelling of disinfectant, which makes me laugh when I open it :) I love these types of furniture, such a rich history of the medical field, and many make quirky but useful home furniture.
Thank you for the awesome feedback
Beautiful Barry! It makes me almost want to be examined on it! Key word, almost!
As always, you knocked it out of the park!
Thats a great piece, verry nice. Did great work to it😎
Great stain color. It is always a little odd to see something this old look brand new, it's like being in a time warp. The vinyl really looks new as well.
I at least thought that you have to use a bare metal etching primer before painting, do you know anything about that? Maybe it depends on the type of paint?
Lots of work, but nobody could have done a better job on this.
Great feedback, as always. I think the paint choice should be sufficient, but I have considered trying other methods.
@@MadCityModern My brother sanded a fridge and painted it with oil based rusoleum. He did a beautiful job, looked like a factory finish, just with a foam roller. It took about a year and rust came up through the paint, although he removed it completely. That scared me. Pretty sure auto body workers use some stuff over the bare metal before painting.
That etcher is mind blowing. Thanks.
I think this table would look great in bathroom...a big one! It has a lot of character.
It's gorgeous... but... I'm hoping that this actually has a home (or clinic) to go to?
This was fantastic, 27 years restoring in the antiques business, and I cannot recall ever having done a medical piece like this, and what a beautiful job you did..
Thank you. That is why I decided to try something unusual like this.
Wow, this is certainly a departure from the usual chest of drawers/sideboard fare of typical furniture channels. 😂 Fascinating, soothing and engaging, as per usual. ❤
thank you. enjoyed trying something a little different
@@MadCityModern what are you going to do with it? It might be a bit odd in the living room 😂 I would have mad respect for a doctor who had such a cool exam table in his/her practice!
Perhaps you already answered this, but what are your plans for this piece, Barry? Will you sell it? It’s a beautiful piece of furniture but will take just the right buyer.
Each item in your hands has its own story. It's not just a wonderful restoration journey, but rather a documentary in itself. Excellent work, well done!!
thank you so much
I have two of those tables in my medical office and use them daily. I love these tables. So nice to see another one.
wow! was hoping to see a comment like this
Who will but this and for what purpose? Saw the Dr. Who said he uses them every day. Unless you watch TV. and eat popcorn all day on it slanted up. Beautiful beautiful work. Thank you.stsy well.
I enjoyed this so much. I'm 63 and this table reminds me of old Dr. Creiten who brought me my sister and mother into the world in small town Canada. Thanks for the memories.
this is why i decided to try an unusual restoration. memories like these
What a beautiful piece! Love the Art Deco design. Since it was manufactured in 1945, the Art Deco period was ending and the Mid Century Modern period was just about to begin. Love the history. Thank you.
excellent feedback. thank you
I love the stories about your pieces almost as much as your incredible finished products. Thanks for making an old lady happy by giving me something meaningful to watch.
I really appreciate this!
Okay, I'll bite. What in the G rated world are you going to do with this item? I kinda already know what can be done in the X rated one.
Funny. So did our Dentist neighbor.
I’m thinking maybe the next owner may remove the cushions and use this as a buffet or credenza.
I prefer to go for the x rated ideas! Lol top notch tho! It looks great! Hope someone uses this to its fullest potential 😜
You’ve done a great restoration on a truly wonderful piece that is fascinating in several fronts. Beautiful example of art-deco, intriguing medical history, great engineering, war stories…. This piece has SO much going for it and you honoured its historic interest with balance of clean, restore,renovate. I’m sure it will still look good in most domestic situations or even a museum, equally.
thank you so much for this
You did an excellent job restoring the exam table. Thank you.
thank you
FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC video Barry!!! Man oh Man if this table could talk & I think about how many returning veterans were seen on this table & how many of their ailments & battle scars were treated on here. Your work is insanely detailed & a joy to watch Bud. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
I absolutely love this insight. Thank you my friend!
Awesome work done ✔️ 👏 👍 👌. A grand Salute 🫡
Thank you! Cheers!
Magnificent restoration. Such an unusual piece, of which I am sure few survive. Your descriptions and narration are spot on. I especially appreciate you going with original finishes, also great veneer work. ❤❤❤your videos. Thank you!!!
thank you so much Richard!
A treasure made even more beloved and valuable due to your gentle touch and love for the history of it. ❤❤
thank you
This is a beautiful piece and wonderful restoration.
But I wanted to give you a tip. My old neighbor restored furniture and his favorite 'new' thing was an electric baby bottle warmer for his hide glue bottle. Apparently is works great....who knew.
Just a thought
such a great idea!
@@MadCityModern
Glad you think so.
INCREDIBLE!! You have boundless patience. There seemed to be at least a hundred parts to that table. There were so many metal pieces that needed rust and corrosion removal. Just wow is all I can say, oh I forgot to say the mahogany is beautiful in the color you chose.
thank you so much
I love the uniqueness of this piece & you did a great restoration ♥️
thank you
Wonderful work, genuinely one of the coolest pieces you’ve restored. It’s such a novelty item!
thank you!
My doctor still uses two of these. Looks just like this. It's very cool.
wow
Wow wow wow!!!! What a treasure!! 🤩🤩
thank you
What a great transformation, great to watch and very therapeutic as well. You would make a good surgeon or dentist yourself!
thank you so much
WOW! When I first saw it I said Ewe! But it looks fantastic now! Great job!
thank you so much
Wow, it’s like a museum piece now!
thank you
Hi Barry!
Hello!
I wonder how many hours you put in on that one? It's beautiful! Ready for the next patient! Amazing. Looks comfy.
several days for this one
hello 👋
hello!
Oh Barry. That was wonderful to watch. Looks brand new. The music choice made this a very peaceful video to view. There were tons of pieces to that exam table. Don’t know how you managed to keep everything straight. Too bad about the missing stirrups. What market demographics would a piece like this attract? Just curious.
I have never tested the market with a piece like this. I certainly don't need it : )
This looks interesting. Very cool Barry thanks.
thank you for watching
Barry, your work is spectacular. Thank you for sharing..❤️
thank you
Beautiful job. I love your videos because you always have a great story to share. This piece looks fabulous, almost like new, but what are you going to do with it now? It's not like it's a handy piece a furniture to have around the house. Is it going to a museum?
I would hope for it to go to a museum
Great job! I’m very familiar with this type of exam table as a retired ER RN of 28 years!
love this comment!
That looks great! It could go in a medical museum, maybe? Interesting it was intended to be a dental chair?
I would love for it to go to a museum
I just loved how you showed how each piece compared to before you polished it. Such a nice table. What will you do with it?
that is also rewarding for me. thank you
Beautiful as always! Love the stories and history! You are a gifted craftsman and storyteller!
thank you so much
Stunning. Thanks for sharing this unique peice of furniture. 👍
thank you
Felicitation mr Barry c'est vraiment un très beau travail tu est le meilleur que va tu faire avec ce meuble?salutation 👍👍👍🤗
thank you so much Claire
Brilliant! What a difference you made to it.
thank you
Nicely done!!! a truly unique piece,
thank you
wow barry i know u werent COMPLETELY finished... but how long did it take y ou to get this far ??? that is quite a project!!!! im sure any medical office would be proud to have this !! great job!!
this project took several days
wow you did amzing !!
@@MadCityModern
Beautiful restoration❤️❤️
thank you
Looks like you have yourself a nice "I'm just resting my eyes" piece of furniture for the shop. 😂
thank you
What an incredible outcome! You did a beautiful job on this. Well done!
thank you
You are an historian as well as a restorer and you’re just fabulous at both jobs! It’s amazing the ingenuity of the designers of these pieces with the heavy and complicated fixtures they used back then, but they had so much more CLASS than today’s dinky models for the same purpose! Thank you for showing them to us as they would have looked when new. Very impressive, both to look at and that you manage to drag it back into usability! Just love watching you work your magic! Keep it up.❤️🦘🇦🇺😊
I really appreciate this comment!
Exceptional!
thank you
This is a beautiful and useful restoration!!! ❤❤❤ Knowing that it was intended for a dentist, I'm relieved that there weren't any stirrups. 😅
well said
It looks really nice!
Always an interesting journey with you! A piece of history and new skills learned. Bravo Barry 👏🏽!
thank you!
Barry, this would make such a great movie prop! Maybe you could find a buyer in the movie industry.
that would be amazing
A very odd piece to restore. Where is it going?
I have no idea yet : )
Because it was a dental table would explain why it was missing the stirrups 😂
I actually had at one time a matching piece for this exam table. I thought it was a dentist office piece. The top had a "hidden compartment" that had slots and holes to hold the tools of the trade.
i was hoping to find the matching piece
Really interesting piece. Great for your dungeon. LOL. I wouldn't have stained it. I like the natural color of wood and the variations.
It looks beautiful. My doctor has one just like that in her office.
wow
You never disappoint ❤
thank you again!
I’ve missed your voice! Your channel is my “happy place”. I actually gasped when I saw the finished beauty❣️My cat will verify this!
Thank you Elaine!
This certainly was a complicated piece to restore. Your veneer restoration is impressive .Thank you for your time and effort.
thank you so much
Шикарный видео 👌😍😍😍
И информация, и живые звуки, и сказочная музыка за кадром.
🙏Благодарю!! 🙋♀️💕🌿
Thank you so much
That was really unusual and an absolutely lovely transformation.
thank you Lois
What saddens me is to see how furniture makers long ago felt that utility & beauty weren't self canceling. They made furniture beautiful, possibly in spite of, the utilitarian nature of some pieces. Why can't furniture manufacturers of today do that?
i completely agree
Well said. However, a lot of furniture today is very beautifully and expertly handcrafted, but you pay outrageously for it.
This is awesome!!!❤
thank you
This examination table was built when skill, beauty and use all met. What an amazing job you did restoring it.
Excellent feedback! Thank you
Quite the transformation! Beautifully done!
Wow how awesome!
thank you
Beautiful 😊
thank you
Nice work!
thank you
Witam. Bardzo fajne oraz ciekawe udostępnienie. Miłego dnia życzę
Thank you
Holy cow!!!!!
thank you
I introduced my husband to your channel today. I love how your restore vintage and antique and give us a history lesson about the pieces. Thank you for your dedication and inspiration.
It's so sad to see recently that ALL of the content creators I watch ALL OF THEM EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM are depressed with some sort of mental illness. Suddenly they all revealed this at the same time. Maybe it is connected to all of those content creators who become Lords by buying a small plot of land.
Hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching! Barry
Your work is awesome. Such intensive, detailed work, beautifully done. Bravo!
Thank you so much 😀
Love your blueprint [?] of the Corsair ... Still the most beautiful aircraft EVER
Agreed!
Wow. That's a beautiful piece once more! It may not be a piece of furniture one would have in their home, but I really enjoyed seeing something so old and unique brought back to its former glory. Awesome job, Barry. Thanks for sharing this unique story. 👏
Thank you very much!
I've got to ask ... When you start taking something like this apart, how do you keep all the bits straight? I mean, oh joy! We have 32 bits of wood and 21 pieces of oddly shaped metal, 4 hinges and I have no idea what that is. Now what?
I tried to write near every piece as shown
Would make a fantastic work table
Love the use of the dental tools on the dentist table, lol!
Haha. You caught that
