Restoring - CC41 Oak chest of drawers from the 1940s

Hi and welcome to this weeks video, where we take a 1940s chest of drawers, we found at the road side and restore it.
We discovered in this renovation that it was a piece of CC41, Controlled Commodity, utility furniture. You can see more about this here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CC41.
We're not profession rennovators just enthusiastic DIYers, upcyclers, repurposers, reusers or whatever other tag you'd like to give us BUT we do loads of research to enable us to do the best job that we possibly can.
We love the way our reloved chest of drawers looks and are very proud of our efforts, we hope you love it as much as we do! Enjoy the video and remember to subscribe and hit the bell to be notified when we post new videos.
As always stay safe and well, and we'll see you on the next one.
Ritch and SJ.

Good work.

Great job. Background music is a little loud though.

Nice job. The actual 1943 Utility Furniture catalogue states that the furniture came with a 'dull wax finish' (no sheen, as such). Looks good, though, well done!

Thanks, I did start to panic a bit when the bicarb lifted the ink and spread it about 😬
