  • This video is about the Luterma chair and how to do the best plywood bottom for it. Some time ago I did a video ( • How to restore an old ... ) about copy of Luterma chair. Now, this is the original one. This chair was mass produced somewhere between 1900-1940 but they are still valued here, in Estonia.

      A beautiful chair from something most people would just throw away.
      Watching you with such lethal tools and no safety glove terrifies me. I know you are a professional and know exactly what you are doing though. Unfortunately, I have limited feeling in my hands and have been known to forget that. Taking a casserole out of an oven minus oven glove had the expected result when my husband shouted at me😥.
      Can I ask what shellac actually is, please?

      А что касается конкретного стула, то конечно это имеет смысл только в том случае если это был любимый стул вашего любимого дедушки. Или вам важна пыль веков на нём и его история.
      Если вам на это дело плевать, разумеется гораздо рациональнее и гораздо дешевле заказать новые стулья. А если вы купите готовые в ИКЕЕ, со соотношение цена\качество будет ещё лучше.

Насколько я помню этот ролик (а запоминать его НЕ хочется ввиду его БЕССМЫСЛЕННОСТИ…), у мастера очень неплохая мастерская и профессиональный инструмент (у меня такого нет и в мастерскую я превратил одну из комнат моей квартиры) - то есть он Профессионал. Значит зарабатывает на жизнь ремонтом мебели…? Очень забавно, что Профессионал не может сделать ролик со своей реальной работой… продемонстрировать свои навыки на реально нужной вещи, как это делают десятки других Профессионалов (у которых Приятно поучиться…) Например, у меня регулярно попадаются кресла, для реставрации которых необходимо проявить определённые весьма нетривиальные навыки… Неужели у него таких кресел\стульев никогда не бывает? А когда профессионал применяет свои навыки для бессмысленной работы, то вспоминается песня Наутилус Помпилиуса - «здесь Мерилом Работы считают Усталость…». Неприятно смотреть то, что, очевидно, сделано бессмысленно… Бесполезно потраченное время… бесполезно потраченная энергия… Кому нафиг нужен этот Одинокий стул…

      Вам интересно смотреть про банальное производство банальной мебели? Ну один раз и в общем всё ясно, и больше не надо.
      На примере убитого в хлам старого стула гораздо интереснее.
      И что вы так акцентируете что стул один? Вам обязательно гарнитур Генриха Гамбса? Ну гарнитур можно конечно интереснее продать, или реальный антиквариат. Так сказать не бесполезно трудился.
      Но видео не про бизнес, оно про технику работы. Это конечно мог быть какой угодно стул, стол, не принципиально. Но стул с некоторой историей как-то интереснее.

    I'm not sure you know this tip but.. Nails or screws that have been in wood a long time form a BOND and are very difficult to remove. Get an electric soldering iron and hold onto the head of nail/ screw for a couple of minutes this makes it expand and breaks the bond. when it cools its easier to remove . Hope this helps
