Bringing New Life To A Classic Side Table: Restoration Project

In this video I'll be restoring a vintage octagonal side table and refinishing it in it's natural colour rather than the oppressive dark varnish that it had originally.

    Refreshing finish giving that sad and dark little table a new life. My Dad who lived in Llantwit Major would have loved your workshop although I don't think his would have been so neat! He never met his Great granddaughter but I just know he would have had a dolls house in his workshop too.

    Thanks, the workshop only looks neat because I shove everything behind the cameras before I start to record a video!

    I've never heard of shellac sanding sealer. Nice! When I finish my chair I'm going to try to find that. I just don't like the idea of the nails. Other than that what a beautiful table!

    Just my opinion, restoration does not require any music.

    It's a difficult choice, but I agree. Music is very subjective and can spoil the experience if you don't like the creator's choice.
