Popular Post drzaius Posted July 19, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I've found a really good youtube channel, Thomas Johnson Antique Furniture Restoration . This guys obviously got many decades of experience and has a mellow, laid back approach to his work. The editing and pacing is very good. What I especially like is that he shows his whole process, warts & missteps included. These are good videos to pick up techniques & work around for difficult situations. I could watch it for hours. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I am definitely going to check this out. I just scanned through his channel and there is some really good topics there. I have been looking for something new. Thanks Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drzaius Posted July 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 It's pretty amazing what he can do for some very chewed up old furniture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I just watched his shop tour. I figured that it would be a good foundation when watching the other videos, you would have a sense of the flow. Its a real fitting setting for the work he does, lots of old tools and machinery repairing old furniture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I've been watching his videos for several months now, I really like his logical problem solving methods, vector clamping, dowel extraction (and I've used this method several times), and his recreating missing or damaged pieces. I agree with @drzaius his videos are very well done and informative even if you have no desire to fix furniture for a living, he is full of interesting tricks that will work for fixing or mending mistakes in new work.

JohnG Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Just when I thought I was free from binge watching YouTube for a while... These videos are great. I enjoy how practical he is. They are a treasure trove of good info, techniques, and tricks. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnDi Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 I've been a fan for a few years now. He's a skilled woodworker. And the Howard's polish he uses is now my go to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
