In this episode we embark on a journey into the world of refinishing. Part one gives my thoughts on refinishing and the role it plays in our lives as woodworkers. I will also show you how I inspect old pieces of furniture in order to develop a refinishing plan of attack. Please keep in mind that there is a big difference between DIY refinishing and antique restoration. My methods are firmly in the category of DIY refinishing. If you have a valuable antique and you want to retain its value, I suggest you consult a professional restorer.

Nice work Marc, the episode is looking really interesting. Your relationship with the chest is not what I’m into, BUT hey, live and let live I say :)
I think your appoach to show different topics as they come into your shop is a great idea. It will allow you to show your real abilities (and flaws LOL) rather than faking them slightly for the camera.
Cheers Marc,

Great show, will the .mov file be available for download as it has for other episodes?
Ask and you shall receive. Although I can’t seem to get the file to link up. Let me check a few things and hopefully the hi res version will be up and rolling. Thanks!!

Looks like the problem was on blip.tv’s end. Should be working now. Thanks for your patience.

Ah Marc -
You’re a bloody genius.
And hilarious!!
Thank you.

P.S. – the Django music at the start is a great touch.
You have great taste.
Marc,
Brilliant work on the videos so far! And the inlay tutorial is top notch, as well.
You trying to make us all jealous with the promenant display of the Festool box? Well, it’s working…
Regards,
Ethan
Does it help if I say it was a Birthday present? :)
Festool makes great stuff……but just a tad overpriced…..just a tad…
:)
Well, you may be an embarrassment to the majority of the woodworking world, but I enjoy the videos. I wonder what that says about me . . .
You’re a madman and have a freaky funny sense of humor. Make us Italians proud young man
Awesome video. Keep it going!!
Hi Marc! My thinking is that you made the right thing with these videos. Keep up the good work! Well, the reason I’m posting this is that i have a problem seeing this and only this video. It’s not in MP4 format, but in mov. Is it possible to put a link to the mp4 file? Thanx in advance.
The MP4 file link should be up there. Its right above the .mov link. Its at the very end of the post. Let me know if you need more help.
Marc
Have to say after watching the first 3 episodes I’m impressed at how consistent your videos appear from the start to the more later ones. I’ll also second the comment on the music at the start – great touch.
Really wanted to say thanks for making these videos available for download, and with no fuss to get them either! You can be sure I’ll be advertising your site to all my friends.
