Thanks to everyone who is here to watch this project!! 🍻

I’m so glad to see pieces like this get saved from the landfill. It might not be Fine Furniture, but it’s solid wood, and look how well it cleaned up! I would put that in my house, it looks 10 times better than before and a better look than when it was new.

Thanks! I wasn't sure I should spend the time on it and I wasn't planning on keeping it but now that it is finished, it fits nicely in my home. It is probably here to stay.

The table looks better than it probably did when it was brand new. You gave it depth and warmth that it didn't have before. Proof you can restore newer, cheaper pieces and make them really nice!

Thanks! It was a ton of scraping for sure. I only showed y'all a little of it. But it is better than using stripper. I hate using stripper. Stripper is the worst. Messy and stinky. Have I mentioned that I do not like using stripper? 🙂✌🏽

Very well done! Thanks for the video!

I remember the Bombay line of inexpensive furniture. They had form, however, the factory finish was horrible. You've done an excellent job of revealing what it really could have been. Thanks. Narragansett Bay

There was a large Bombay Company store in Peabody MA back in the day that stocked mostly fake antiques and repros made in Asia. It was a fun place. I still have two steel and marble ice cream parlor tables which I use as end tables in my bedroom.

This restoration/resuscitation of the lovely Bombay Co. corner table is astounding! Atlanta here - I still have 2 Bombay Co. silver chests that I use as nightstands. They are 30+ years old and still look great! I really loved Bombay Company. Sure miss that store.

Marvelous job.

I have something similar but it is designed for a snooker room. So there are holes drilled through the top so I can slot cues in the holes. Very useful.

A small hook screwed into the under side of the top. That takes the triangle.

I have a Bombay Co. mirror that's at least 40 years old and it has held up well, aside from the joints shrinking.

I had never had a piece before this. Found it on the side of the road. It is not something I would have purchased back in the day but I love how it turned out in the end. Thanks!!

That came up nice - I thought when you started staining you were going to keep the edges lighter - 🤔 think it would’ve looked quite nice - end result looks good in that space too

@Restorology

Ай бұрын

Lighter edges would have looked nice but they had a strange plastic-like trim that didn't stain well and looked fake. I had to sand it off and stain to match the top to blend it in to look natural. Thanks!

Nice work.

Can you tell me what the set up is for spinning the spindles for sanding? Sweet to see a trashed piece take on a new life

@Restorology

9 ай бұрын

Thanks! I cannot remember the turning speed of the lathe that I use when simply sanding pieces. I will have to go look it up and get back with you on that. It's a slow speed though. The big thing I have to remember though when using the lathe to sand is to make sure I do not put scratch marks in the wood as it turns. I just turn to get the heavy finish off and then finish sanding with strokes by hand along the wood grain to remove marks from turning.

It was ugly now it’s nice

Why not use paint stripper ????🤨🤨🤨

@Restorology

9 ай бұрын

I hate using stripper. It's stinky, messy, environmentally unfriendly, and not safe (but mostly because I am bad about using PPE). I try only to use it when scraping or sanding is not enough. I really, really hate using stripper and only use it when nothing else works. I've got a couple of projects in the queue for which I will need stripper so stay tuned! ✌🏽

I'm afraid it was junk before and still is. All that work and you didn't even stain the underside of it. I admire your work, but sadly a waste of time in my opinion. Take care 🙂

@Restorology

9 ай бұрын

I am not sure I'd call it total junk but it definitely won't be a new family heirloom to pass on. I didn't stain the underside because it wasn't stained to begin with...however, I did seal the wood underneath to prevent further damage. Thanks for the honest feedback!! ✌🏽

1997 from Bombay THIS IS NOT AN ANTIQUE. IT'S A PIECE OF JUNK !!!!!!!

Who said it was an antique? It's not even vintage! I am not sure I'd call it junk as it was made like most furniture of the day but for a trash find I feel it cleaned up nicely. Thanks for your insightful feedback. It's always welcome here. Cheers 🍻
