My dog loves sticks too 😊 I have a desk like that I bought 8 or so years ago from a charity shop, I had every intention of doing it up but sadly I became ill and now I am unable too so it is really nice too see yours done. (Mine is far worse condition noe thanks to youngest child 🤦). North East here too 👋👋

@@polgarauk5606 Yes I have been to the Washington Wetland Centre many times with my children back in the day. Lovely place. Oh I’m really sorry. You should drop me a message on Facebook and send me some pics of the desk. I’d love to work on another sometime.

Looks a lot like my first grade desk from 1954. A left over from years before and newer desks were in great demand because of the "booming babies". A great job. A suggestion on the clamping: place a piece of scrap wood between the jaws of the clamp and the piece you're gluing to minimize impressions. Narragansett Bay

Love this! Thank you so much. Will definitely take the advice on the clamping.

Is there a list of materials you used? You've inspired me to have a go at restoring a school desk found in a greenhouse given to me recently. It's covered in green paint of a certain vintage. I fell in love with it! ❤ What do I use to remove the old peeling paint?
@McCluskeyRestorations
@McCluskeyRestorations 16 дней назад
Hello, love that I inspired you. For paint removal you could use paint stripper and a scraper to get the thick of it off. Another way would be to use a heat gun and scraper. Clean with white spirits. After it’s dry… sand sand and sand… work your way up from 60 grit to 240. I have a more recent video of a school desk if you look on my RU-vid homepage. Best of luck and enjoy! P.s. don’t forget to wear a safety mask and gloves.

Hi! I am a new subscriber, and I really enjoy your videos! However, the audio portion is driving me crazy. I have to turn the volume way up to hear you speak, and then the music comes on, and it SO loud, so I have to quickly turn it down. I've lost count on how many times I've had to adjust my volume, and it gets tiring after a while. Other than that, you do beautiful work, and I'd like to continue to watch them. Thank you!
