I really love how there is an unspoken rule on the restoration channels - no annoying music or chatter. Just the piece, the person and the job. Fantastic stuff!

Nice to see the cat earning his wages by supervising the entire project so magnificently, and then inspecting the finished article. The tail flick indicates that it's passed.

I just discovered the world of youtube restoration videos a week or so ago and I absolutely love your channel. There's something so peaceful and uplifting about watching old, neglected objects lovingly brought back to their former glory. Maybe it's silly, but watching a stove or coffee grinder be restored is my new favorite way to unwind after work. I've always liked antiques and vintage objects and it does my heart good to see that some people are still dedicated to preserving them. (Also, I like your orange kitty!)

It breaks my heart to see pieces like this so warped and rusted. The piece itself is a work of art. I love to see new life breathed into items like this.

I love how he tries to keep as much of the original as possible. And even in the broken parts, he repairs them, only replacing the non salvageable parts.

I forgot where all the pieces went as soon as he unscrewed them. What an art

Such a beautiful stove! I love the green enamel it came with.

Восхитительная работа мастеров прошлого и реставратора настоящего. Виртуозное исполнение. Аплодирую стоя мастеру реставраций )

That’s one of the prettiest greens I’ve ever seen.

The people that save items from the landfill and breath life back into them are gold! Pure gold!

I cannot tell you how much I respect your talent, craftsmanship like yours is, unfortunately, a disappearing art. I have always loved the beauty of older objects and it saddens me when I see them being destroyed rather than restored. I so enjoyed this video. Thank you.

That is by far the most beautiful little stove I've ever seen. The color is so amazing, you've done a wonderful job!

For those interested as I am in antiques, this is an enamelled cast iron Art Nouveau wood stove from Le Brulbois, Fonderies Arthur Martin. It would be nice to see the names of the items you restore in case other's are interested like I am in acquiring one. Beautiful restoration, however!

Beautiful restoration. Restored to a functional state without destroying it’s history. Only replace what can’t be repaired. Good job!

Драгоценные руки мастеров, создавших такую красоту и заново его возродивших, браво.

Реставрация старых, добротных вещей это волшебство, требующее много знаний, навыков, мастерства! Спасибо реставраторам!

Wow - I knew enamel paint was hard-wearing, but geez, look at the shine on that!

This stove is a beautiful example of how much time and craftsmanship was used in the past! Loved this restoration!

Сколько души вложено в каждую вещь!!! Жалко расставаться? Это как врач. Вылечил тяжело больного и уже не забудет. Спасибо вы классные👍👍👍❤️🇷🇺

Love the Art Neuveau style of decoration on the enamelled parts of this stove Theres something so fundemental about mankind working with metals Im female & have loved metal working all my life Even though i worked in mental health my relax & unwind go to was working in metal I qualified in MIG & TIG welding Worked on restorations & new projects & later worked with precious metals in jewellery I love these programmes Its IS so relaxing but even better when your doing it yourself You get lost in working & time doesn't exist Thank you so much for this Its a beautiful stove

Just imagine how proud some woman was when she had this stove set up in her family’s house. She probably had her neighbors over for tea to show off this lovely green stove. Beautiful

I am a 69 yr old grandmother, just wanted you to know your work keeps me watching all of your videos I can find. Thank you for sharing .

I can certainly understand wanting to restore that stove-- beautiful piece! Flawless, masterful work. Superb!

Too stunning for words. Imagine walking into someone’s living room & this is sitting in the fireplace ! ❤️😍🥰. Delighted to see its first use was to make some delicious proper coffee!

I am always in awe at how beautiful and well built household items were once made. And that color is gorgeous.

I was so freaking HAPPY to see you not touch that green enameling! What an absolutely beautiful restoration. Bravo!

Спасибо за Ваши работы! Немного людей на земле с такими золотыми руками!

In the old days everything was so much more elaborated, sturdy and beautiful . That color is amazing. I love the last approval of the cat :)

The stove just looks like it makes the food and tea taste better just by being in its presence. That is one nice looking stove!

That is the most beautiful stove I've ever seen. You're a good soul, to bring it back to life.

What artisanship in both the original and the restoration! I can imagine this stove in a charming little Parisian cottage.

i cannot get over how pretty that stove is, that is a beautiful green it came in

Out of ALL the restoration videos I have watched, this is the one I admire most. It is a gorgeous stove and deserved to be lovingly restored and this man did it perfectly.

That green enameling is gorgeous.

That looks amazing! I really like how you saved the original green finish on the exterior and glad I found your channel.

Absolutely stunning restoration. That green is so beautiful!

One of the things that I enjoy about this channel is watching the 'old' hands and the 'new' hands working together.

I was watching with great interest however the "Inspection Kitty" really got me hooked. You sir are a master at restoration. Bravo!

The love and care you put into every thing you do almost makes me tear up. It is such a Blessing to watch someone who loves what he does so much!!

Great video. Learned a lot. The cat was a delightful distraction doing what cats do. Beautiful restoration. Wood stoves hold a special place for me...I was named after my great grandmother, whom was named after one!

My grandma had something like this! She showed me 3 years ago She left it unused for 40 years

wow, I love that green colour! it reminds me of the uranium green that was used a lot back in the early 1900's

Какая красота! Глаз не оторвать! Мастеру тысячу раз Браво! Браво вашим рукам и вашей голове. Спасибо за красоту.

I find it fascinating to watch people like you refurbish sometimes seeming irreparable items and how you accomplish your work. Interesting and educational. I do not have the equipment nor the dexterity to do those things so Just enjoy watching you. Thank you.

Everyone else: This is incredible Me: KiTtY cAt

The steel became dark because of carbonization due to high temperature.

I felt a warm smile come over me when you started to put the stove back together. Can’t leave a message on my tv so I paused the video and took to my cell phone. You do wonderful work and thank you so much for sharing. Loved Ginger cats inspection. Well done! So happy to know there are artisans mastering, caring and loving the restoration process.❤❤❤😊

Love the green! What a gorgeous stove! You restored it to perfection. I wish that I owned that piece of art. Beautiful job!

Honestly love how they dont talk and just work

Surely for your final inspection you had a “CAT” scan!

Amazing. I love your videos. No talking, no music. And everything ist done with respect and love for the material and object. This stove would be perfect for a campervan. 🥰

Старинная плитка-щепочница. Симпатичная. Меховой инспектор - Одобряю.

Every times I see the Dramatic Welding Light-effects I expect someone to yell "It's alive!!" XD

14:28 the metal is dark because it's covered in black iron oxide. Unlike the red iron oxide (rust), it's pretty strong, and forms a protective coating

Вообще это шедевр и не укладывается в уме, глазам своим не верю но это есть и это супер!!! До чего же красиво , до чего же поражает ваше умение, ваше ремесло, что вы владеете таким умением и восстанавливаете такие вещи, спасибо!!!

Those green enameled pieces came out so beautifully. Well done.

I for one have to say thank you for not trying to "fix" that enameled cast iron, seen far too many things similar to this where people want to modernize via spray paint or similar.

You know sh*t is about to get real when the concrete comes out in a restoration video

I love love love the way things used to be made to last. Workmanship was a thing of pride once upon a time. Beautiful piece and great job !

What a fantastic restoration! This is such a beautiful stove now. One thing I love about all the restorations is that the items become usable again and we can see that. Watching these is meditative.

Вот это реставрация!!! С ювелирной точностью. Золотые руки у мастера!!! Восторг и восхищение!!! Как здорово, когда можно дать вторую жизнь эксклюзивным предметам и вещам !!!

Третий час ночи,а я не могу оторваться от экрана,как от детектива,интересно,а,что дальше будет!Мастер с большой буквы,золотые руки!

Well done! I love these old stoves. To see them fully restored and functional is a real treat.

Thank you for preserving that stunning green shade!

Absolutely amazing restoration. I'm glad the green enameling stayed in such good shape, cause that's the real eye-catcher. Also thank you Assistant Avril for the inspections! :D

Очень нравится ваша работа. Браво. Случайно попал на ваш канал, теперь не могу оторваться, смотрю все подряд и все нравится. Буду дальше смотреть. Удачи вам, вы хороший мастер.

Малахитовая шкатулка! Сегодня пригодились и знания химии.Ювелирная работа. Да, умели люди красиво жить. Спасибо, что позволили, почувствовать дыхание старины.Это классика.

Печь - это сердце дома! А эта печурка ещё и редкая красавица! Браво!

12:05 love the box inspector, looks like it passed the box test.

I wonder what it would be like for someone who had put this together when it was new, to watch you deconstruct it so gently.

What a beautiful oven..I love how you took care of it to bring it back to his old glory....and Kitty approved your work as well ❤

The “final check” got me good! 😄🐈 You’re fantastic! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Cat timestamps here I found: 12:04 - Avril checking the new metal almost box. Cats love box 24:15 - Quality control time. Employee Avril on duty. Cat jump of approval. 30:41 - Orange fluff strolling. A part of the screen is covered (only tail tip is visible to me), but it should be Avril Welding can damage the eyes too. Even if a video of welding is safe (at least it should be), better safe than sorry, and it might help viewers get used to not staring at welding irl. Thanks for the video, the stove looks pretty good. May God bless you.

absolutely stunning job! green is my favourite colour! I love that you didn't over do the restoration, just cleaned it up, fixed the missing bits, and got it working again! A joy to watch, thank you

Someone who puts in every single step, even the dreadful ones, deserves thousands of likes.

What an amazing restoration! I absolutely love this stove and it's green color. Incredible job!

Love the “Cat for scale interludes”

Какая яркая , уютная вещь получилась ! Удивительно приятно смотреть на руки мастеров , на их работу . Восхищает итог работы .!

Avril says "Hmmm... the Man-Human made this too small for me. Oh, well PUUUUuuuurrr ". And THANK YOU for protecting our eyes when you weld, you are one of the few who do this!

Я в восторге и от печки и от золотых рук этого человека. Токарь высшего профессионального образования и категории.🇷🇺👏👏👏👏

Thank you, Avril, for your diligence and efficacy in regards to your quality control examinations!

You wouldn’t believe how happy I was when I saw him folding the edge on that sheet metal

Браво! Большое удовольствие смотреть за Вашей работой.Вы мастер с большой буквы!!!

Это искусство! Браво мастеру! Из России с уважением!)

The word "beautiful" is an understatement! Stunning! Gorgeous! Amazing! Enchanting!!!!!

Very nice restoration job. I be proud to own a little woodstove like that. There are so many unique antique woodstoves out there I'd love if you could do a restoration on the large old kitchen woodstove that was used to heat the home and to do the cooking for the family. Your work is very remarkable 👏👌

Потрясающая рвбота! Смотрела без отрыва,как завороженная.Спасибо за умение и золотые руки.

Wow! You put so much heart into this restoration. It’s a beautiful piece! Thank you for sharing.

Also, your cutting skills with a circular saw is legendary...

12:08 That's what my cat does too; gets right in the middle of whatever project you're doing and "helps".

So viele Arbeit. Ich wusste nicht, dass so ein Ofen aus so vielen Teilen besteht. Du machst es sehr gut und ruhig, ohne unnötigen Lärm, so dass man es auch als Frau gern schaut!

Боже! Сколько же в стариннах вещах души и истории! О предназначеннии некоторых я поняла только в конце ролика,когда увидела их в действии. Работа мастера ввше всяких похвал! Так аккуратно и бережно.

Какой же мастер молодец! Просто какое-то волшебство! Не возможно отвести взгляд! Bravissimo!

The cat said it "was still a box". It's a thing of beauty. Love the green!

The toaster door on the front is awesome. The whole thing was so well thought out. Glad you found and restored it. You're a genuine Smitty like back in the years of old.

I found myself literally holding my breath while watching this master work his magic.

You know even after all these years the enamel still looks great.

Love this one, fantastic piece! I love when old things get a new life. I've restored some old kitchen pieces by hand - a coffee grinder and a couple of pots and pans, love seeing your restorations with proper tools! Makes me want to take a metal work class!

I am truly amazed at this piece and the skill you have to bring life back into it! You are such an inspiring artist! Thank you for sharing😀

И ведь это не краска, это ж глазурь! Как они это делали! Какое изящество! Браво! Это музейный экспонат, сказочная печь!🌹🙌🤗
