In this video I'll talk about the thought process I use to decide how I choose a wood finish for my projects, and I'll show you how I apply them.

Refinishing An Ercol Giraffe Room Divider

In this video I'm going to be restoring the finish on a 1956 Ercol Giraffe room divider for a client.

I've never worked on a piece of furniture this old or this valuable before.

And the first mission was collecting it in my small van, I had to get it in by laying it down on it's side, and because it's talled than my van is long, I needed to the door of my van shut with some rope and needless to say I drove home very carefully.

First I had a look around the piece partly to see what work I'd need to do, and partly pure admiration at what a beautifully wel

Coffee Table With Metal Legs

Recently I salvaged some metal coffee table legs - these were being thrown away as part of an office clearance at my place of work, and originally they had melamine tops which were really badly worn and damaged after years of use, and I knew I could make use of the metal legs, so I asked for the metal legs to be put aside for me. I think I took about 6 or 7 pairs of these in total.

And in this video I'm going to make a solid wood table top for one of the pairs of legs and I'm also going to grind off the paint from the metal legs which you'll see later in the pr

Repairing & Restoring Dining Chairs

Recently I made a couple of desks as a commission for a client, and when I was delivering those to his home, he mentioned he had some solid beech dining chairs that were in need of repair. There were 6 in total but initially I just took 4 of them away, and in this video I'm going to be showing how I repaired and re-finished them.

The main problem with these chairs, as you can see is that joints are loose, so the chairs had quite a bit of movement in them.

When I lifted the seat pad out, I found there was another problem - the corner brackets which sho

Making Two Signs - hand routing

In this video I'll be working on two sign projects.

The first is a commission for one of my Patrons on Patreon. He asked for a house sign named "The Redlands", and for that I'll be using a piece of what I first thought was a wood called utile, but after posting a picture of the sign on Instagram, a couple of people commented about it potentially being walnut. I'm not sure, but whatever it is, it's a really nice piece of wood - you can see here in the corner where I used my handplane to get a better look at the grain. I bought this piece several months ago

How To Make A Beeswax & Oil Furniture Polish For Wood Finishing

In this video I’ll be demonstrating how I my own oil wax wood finishing product.

But first, I thought I'd explain why, as there were a few reasons

Firstly I’ve recently run out of Briwax which is a product that I use quite often as a finish, at least for items I make that don’t need a lot of protection from moisture.

Secondly, Briwax is great for adding a really smooth finish and a nice subtle sheen to wood, but it doesn’t really pop the grain, so what I usually do is apply boiled linseed oil to pop the grain
