In this video I restore a vintage Schoolmaster's desk by Abbess and give it a rustic, look. I employ many woodworking techniques to save the original desk top and repair broken wood pieces, joints and veneer.

As a State employee, I was chained to one of those desks for decades. I'm grateful you were able to remove all the evidence of redundant paperwork & triplicate memos, the lingering traces of overbearing useless oversight and anachronistic regressive policy changes to create a nexus for art. Art is happiness!

Beautiful restoration with much needed upgrades!!

Well done.

Love how this came out! And brilliant idea and work on the faux door handle!

I’m loving the awesome humor that you have in this video! One thing I learned on another channel is that oxalic acid is extremely toxic. On that channel after it dries he washes the wood with lots of water to keep the dried crystals from going airborn. Then he has a squeegee to wipe the water off and uses a towel. He also washes the floor if the solution spilled because it is dangerous for his dog to walk on it and possibly lick it off. Since you use it routinely, this could be a big health risk for you and your kitty. I just want to help you stay healthy and live a long good life! 😊 The info online I found is from a beekeeper site, but I’m sure it is applicable to all who use that product. Loving your videos and what a good person you are!

My Friend, your videos never disappoint! Your subscriber count will skyrocket soon. You have so many amazing followers, and like me, I'm sure they love the way you approach each new challenge. Now I need to find a desk like this to keep up. You need to restore a boat so you can visit the states soon. Look forward to working with you soon! Barry

Every grade school teacher I had back in the mid 50's to early 60's had one of these desk. Yours is prettiest. You are putting together very entertaining videos. Sanding was never so enjoyable to watch!

I love seeing how you're actually using the desk -- staging it makes it look fab, of course, but seeing it being USED is so inspiring! I also like how you admit to almost giving up 3x. That makes the rest of us feel a bit better when we too are intimidated or discouraged with projects we're determined to finish but can't seem to get quite done. Thanks!

Love the finished product. You know cats are very discerning, your visitor was so at home. Says a lot about the sort of person you are. Love your videos

I'm loving not only your work but how in each video a bit more of your personality is coming through❤️

I called them my trays. They were great for grading papers. Greetings from Texas

Those new drawer pulls were an excellent choice. I like the two-toned effect as well.

[CathiePetrasek]

I like how you take tired old boring furniture and recreate it. Again saving it from the dump. Very nice.

[pattym]

That desk turned out beautiful! I love your decision to replace the original drawer pulls with those more streamlined versions. And that refurbished ‘back splash’ piece added the perfect finishing touch. Bravo. 👏

[donfenton]

That desk was brought back to a beautiful life.

[anitamorales]

I LOVE it! I always love a video that makes me laugh out loud! This was a pleasure to watch and the end result looks like a high end bespoke desk. The kitty was a nice touch too! Thank you for sharing this with us.

My teachers had a desk just like this when I went through primary school - I feel old!

[DarkwingSnark]

The splash of black honestly makes a nice contrast to the lighter wood color, and I think that plus the new handles ended up really modernizing the piece.

[charlieoscar]

You convinced me! I subscribed! I love your videos. I used to refurbish old furniture. I certainly did not have the tools you have but I did enjoy it. I particularly love this desk and would have kept that for myself. It just wouldn’t have turned out as beautiful as yours did!

[truthmatters]

Impressive work! Handsome masculine desk. These desks are abundant in 2nd hand stores, this demonstrates how beautiful they can be.

I enjoy listening to as you work. Feel like i am there with you.
