1930's Silky Oak Sideboard - Furniture Restoration
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
If you would like to support the channel - www.buymeacoffee.com/restorat...
For this old Sideboard restoration, I have tried to use only hand tools (though one power tool may have slipped in). I make a new drawer from scratch as well as strip back the darkened finish to expose the amazing grain of the Silky Oak underneath. I hope you enjoy my process and maybe learn something new, as this isn't some normal furniture flip! Let me know in the comments what you like or dislike about it.

I can't believe how many people have watched and seem to enjoy my work! Thank you, I am so glad to share my hobby with you all. I have been asked about setting one of these up and always said no, but if it will make people happy, you can now shout me a coffee. www.buymeacoffee.com/restorationendeavours Also, check out kzread.info as I learned so much through his awesome videos.
My Grandma had a piece just like that. Grandpa took the locks off. she put her fine silver ware in the drawer and her good table cloths in the side cupboards. that was in the Dining Room near the corner. Thank you for sharing your excellent work and brining back those memories. God bless.

I particularly enjoyed seeing you create the missing drawer using dovetails made the traditional way that I was taught. Congratulations on another fine restoration using only hand tools.

I see you have watched a few of my videos. I am glad you are enjoying them! I am trying to look for more pieces where I can do things like remake parts from scratch, but I think I will have to just make some furniture instead of restoring to do it. Cheers,
I love the grain and the color of that silky oak. I have never seen a piece of furniture made with it before. Lovely work.

Silky Oak is one of my favorite timbers. It has so much character.
It's beautiful!! Love that you opted for this refreshing honey-colored finish....rather than the tiresome, somber, brown-black shoe-polish stain that was on it.

I agree, though from what I can tell, the darker finish deteriorates and gets a lot dark over time, so originally it would have been nice and warm instead of dark and dreary.
Ah, a purist. Very enjoyable because you enjoyed it!

I'm subscribing as well. Thanks for showing how to do dovetails. I want to restore a mahogany dresser with one missing drawer front and I'm going to try doing dovetails instead of gluing front to sides. Ironically, I'm also 72 and been working on furniture since I was a kid. Mom showed me how as she didn't believe in tossing old furniture out when you could fix or refurnish it--but NOT paint it as wood is beautiful. I'll be a regular viewer from now on.

Great job. It looked pretty sad to start with, but you've breathed new life into it. It's great to see the hand tools in use for this one. Too often you see people using every super expensive, noisy power tool known to mankind. More time consuming going the hand tool route but much calmer and definitely quieter.

I love the wood and the final look. I think the shellac darkened overtime which is common. To me it looks 1920s, most antique pieces don’t have the cut outs for the mirror which makes it look more modern but it doesn’t look 30s to me as the thirties typically produced more modern furniture. This would fit in perfectly in those 1920s fairytale cottage style homes. Maybe Australian furniture was 20 years ahead of American furniture in style. :)

I think you are spot on about the shellac darkening. I have been told that it could be about that time, and possible made by a local company so I have been trying to find their old catalogues for a more definitive answer.
I have a piece very similar to this one. The door in the middle was missing but we got bye without it by using the space to display an art piece. When our need for it as storage in the dining room ceased I repurposed it into a vanity in the bathroom and decided to make a door for the middle. It looks like it was always there in our hundred year old house. Some would call me out for destroying an antique but as the vanity it lives on rather than ending up in the landfill because no one else wanted it.
Nice job, lovely and informative, thank you for posting😊

I absolutely love Silky Oak. I have a SO dresser that belonged to my grandparents, dated to 1919. It's slightly chunkier than the one you have so I would date yours to a little earlier than mine. Maybe the 1900s or earlier 1910s for yours. I don't think anyone in the 60s would have made a piece like this so that "67" on the back of the mirror is either the date of a replacement mirror, or something else 🙂 Love the refinish on this piece, showing the lovely grain of the timber. Mine needs refinishing too, you may have just inspired me.

It's amazing timber, isn't it. I was thinking that maybe it was custom piece that was made to order, but it's strange to see pine used with such an old piece of wood for the top. The tree would have been massive. I do think you are right though, the 67 can't be a year, or at least the original year. Good luck with it, and hopefully it's not to big a job!

My mother had a similar piece at home when I was a child, around the year 1970. I remember really disliking it as a piece of furniture. Its mirror was very thin and darkened around the perimeter. I remember that he was always limping and his doors were difficult to open. Worst of all was the dark cassia that was crudely painted. It was the furniture of the poor houses. You turned a similar piece into a beautiful piece of furniture that made me heal bad childhood memories.
