Your videos absolutely make my day. Your attention to each piece is like caring for an old friend who’s down on their luck. You are a beautiful soul, Jay. …and please, don’t ever replace the talk in your videos with silence; I’ve seen so many recent channels and makeovers that are silent except for really strange background music. Your instruction is that gentle encouragement to those of us who feel intimidated to begin our projects. The soothing music and cats are great additions!!

It amazes me how much beauty is buried under dirt and neglect. Another breathtaking piece.

Incredible! I thought this one would have you tearing at your hair! I see the scraper saved you 2000 years of sanding, though! Well done! ❤ from South Africa 🇿🇦

I like that you stamp your work with your well designed logo.

The "sassy little legs " took this drawer stand from the 40's to the 50's Jay. Love the handles too ❤ I hope it finds a good home 🏡. ❤

Gotta say I really admire how thorough you are. Every part gets attention, and this somehow touches my poor old cold hard heart.

You’ve done it again. Every time I think you can’t top what you’ve already done, you prove me wrong. Again, it’s your vision of what and old, discarded, tired piece of furniture can become is simply amazing. You are the “woodworking wizard!”

Your videos are"must see tv" for all current and future furniture restorers. As always, your attention to detail, shines through. I appreciate the fact that you detail parts your projects that are NOT seen, equally as the parts that are seen. No one else does this. Well done Sir.

Another reason why I love this video is because of jays creativity in his art and his ability to make great furniture.

The loving way you apply the wax at the end of each piece, is a perfect finale to the precision and care you give to everything you do.

I don’t know how you keep coming up with new ways to make things look spectacular and special and original…but you do. This was beautiful Jay 😻

I am glad you are doing this full time now. I really appreciate your attention to detail. Excellent job at usual!

Your restoration of this piece revealed the quality of the workmanship and materials not seen in modern 'everyday' furniture. Love how you 'let it be' with the addition of cheeky ankles...🥰👍

Beautiful! I love natural wood pieces! I love how the wood grains show off the different shades and character of each species.

Beautiful! And you didn't even have to spend "2000 years" sanding it!!:)

In my head you are a dentist who lives with his 6 cats and flips furniture and runs half marathons in his spare time. Your movements are very precise and your workshop is so clean and well organised, major dentist vibes. And I feel like maybe you're a Wallace, or maybe a Gareth. We don't let the facts ruin a good story right?! Anyway, I like your videos, keep up the good work! 😊

The feet you put on this cabinet added a nice visual appeal. Your workmanship shows the quality and care you put into every piece. Thank you for bringing these videos. And especially those visits from Hugo.

I always wonder if the person that put these out, ever sees what you’ve done with them.

Your final product photos are artwork themselves. Putting the piece in the grass and sunlight brings out all the rich warmth of the piece. I actually didn't like it in your workshop but the photos changed my mind. Bravo.

You spoil me a little with your thoroughness and attention to detail. When I watch other restorers (which is rare) of furniture and they don’t take care of the bottom of the piece or the inside, I think say to myself “hey, they missed it”. Then I realize it’s not you. The bedside table is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.😊 M

What a terrific redo. The piece at the end was beautiful. Just my opinion, but I like it better when you narrate.

Your choices for this cabinet were perfect.

I love the birds singing in the background, and Hugo and friends dropping by. It elevates your videos, making them more relatable. And the music is lovely, too. Thanks.

I didn’t think I was going to like the dark stain but the final result is remarkable! ❤

Love the dark stain with the touch of bling! It was a truly sad little cabinet before.😟 WELL DONE!

You sure know how to pick a challenge. This turned out beautiful ❤

Wow. It’s beautiful. I love that you work on every single piece of the furniture. Down to polishing hinges and staining the back of the piece. Your work truly transforms the piece. Great job.

You need to change the channel name to The Wood and Cat Whisperer! 🤣Another beautiful restoration, as always!

Excellent job of taking a tired old bedside stand and making it beautiful again!! Well done!

This turned out so great WHO knew that disaster could be so beautiful

Went from tacky, to elevated and incredibly beautiful!!! Amazing work, as usual!

I love the grain of the wood! Great work as usual.

Beautiful ❤️😍 Good call on not re veneering it looked beautiful without it. Hope you got home safely xx 😊

A simple yet elegant piece. By simple i just mean that it's "only" a bedside table. Lovely 🖤

I am constantly amazed how you take pieces ready for the dump (or literally out of the dump 😝) and resort them back to quality, usable and beautiful furniture. Totally amazing! Award winning! 🏆🏆🏆

Never I have ever watched your video and thought, that was ok. My first thought when it’s done is wow, he did it again! ❤ Truly beautiful work!

The leg choice is brilliant! Love this piece as well as your restoration vision.

Absolutely beautiful as always

I think it could be fun to completely change the look of ugly stuff. It makes me wonder why it was made ugly to begin with. Love what you do!

Beautiful restoration job! After my day of hearing talking all the time, it was a pleasure to watch this video.

It really doesn’t look like your worst! You have done some gnarly pieces and they always end up looking fantastic. Can’t wait to see what you do with this.

Very nice. I like how you treat the back n inside of the piece too. 😊😊

Hello mister beautifully restored professionally restored well done

Bring it! You can make this look fantastic!

Beautiful job!

Another wonderful restoration Jay. Love it. So simple and yet elegant 👏👏👏👏

Beautiful! You've inspired me to strip away the layers of paint I inflicted upon my late grandfather's solid mahogany dresser. I want to restore it back to its former glory. I referenced your videos for all the tools, materials, and techniques.❤

Ahhhh we all love Hugo sooo much!!! 🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕🐾🐾🐾🐾🦁🦁🦁🦁

Outstanding as usual!!! Thank you for what I am learning from you!!!!

Мне очень нравится этот Мастер. Он умеет показать всю красоту души дерева.❤❤❤

Gorgeous! Love this one! I like the legs so much better than the original base. The dark finish is beautiful!

That previous repair was so "RIG". As always, your restoration is fantastic! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Who said you shouldn’t talk in your videos to enjoy them? I love your humor and relaxing voice!!❤

Jay, you should be proud of yourself. She’s a beauty. I love the color of the stain. She really shines. Another great job. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟🌟

Beautifully done, Jay. I really love to hear you talk (and add your bits of humor). Next time, talk to us more!

The color is magnificent! I love watching you work.

Another masterpiece! The color you chose for this piece is so beautiful - especially after that final coat of wax. So very rich! 👏🏻👏🏻

Cleaning, disambling, striping, repairing, sanding, dying, several smoooooth layers of shellac. Perfect. Please, avoid those eternal NEW products that never will do much than the origial recipe. Thanks for sharing.

very sweet. You brought her back to life!

Oh! She came out so well! Wax is a wonderful thing! And I love that a little bit of gilding went back on! ✌️♥️

Beautiful work, though it broke my heart a little to see MCM-style replacement legs on an Art Deco piece.

Wood looks beautiful! Love watching you work.

As always I love watching you work on furniture. The legs are a little bow legged. Lol😂

What a cute table. So nicely done. You saved and restored another piece of art! I love the legs.

You are very talented. Didn't think it was in very good shape, now look at it. Beautiful.

Beautifully done. Such an amazingly rich colour.

The book-matched grain on the door looked like a Rorschach inkblot.......thank you for rescuing this piece. It’s sooo pretty!

The grain is fabulous and that stain is beautiful. Loving the legs too. Great job Jay.

You had me worried for a while. Thought you were leaving it the dull look. But I should have known better. You gave it the lovely shine of art deco. Well done once again.

Lovely.simplicity is often best

Never thought of a woodworker using a soldering iron, but it seemed to do work like a charm on the dents. Another gorgeous outcome. (BTW, I'm not a woodworker, so I enjoy hearing your explanatory comments as work on a piece progresses.)

Gorgeous. Another triumph❤

Beautiful work

Such pretty woodgrain

The good news about the blue tack is that at least it's easy to remove!

Peaceful music, thank you

You are a magical finisher!

Bravo! I think I would have shook my head and given up!

I love the legs you chose for this piece as they complement the age and style of the piece very well. I have to admit it’s a beautiful piece now and I’m quite sure that someone will be willing to pay good money for that. As always, very good work!

so soothing with the music and bird singing 💖

As always you never cease to amaze me with your beautiful work 😁🇬🇧❤️

Twice I've fallen asleep watching this video 😂😂 not boring, just so relaxing to watch! Needed the snooze! Thanks buddy!

I love this one so much, your attention to detail is amazing...

The beauty of the original solid oak hiding under veneer is STUNNING. Love the addition of the new legs, giving this classic piece just the right amount of "modernity." Yes, I too wonder if anyone who has dumped a poor old piece of furniture on the side of the road or donated it to a charity shop sees your videos and gets inspired.... Bravo, as usual!

This came out gorgeous!

Not only do I love your work, I love your soundtracks. It's always great music!

Beautiful work! Love the quiet video style.

Wow. What a transformation. I watched Mayfields last video and told him y’all need to do another blind challenge.

So much care to bring this piece back to life. Great results!

Absolutely stupendous. !!

You always do such a wonderful presentation. Like a small journey. It’s lovely

So, it IS true... all that glitters is not gold... but you sure did make this piece shine! Spectacular work once again, Jay!

Love that cabinet!

Hi Hugo!! That little table had some very nice wood after all. You could not tell at the beginning. Love that stain!

Another great save of a pitiful piece of furniture, Jay! The legs are a significant improvement over the original base. I'd never heard of Blu Tack, but that's something to learn. The dark stain is a good choice and lends an air of sophistication. Give some more ear scritches to Hugo; he's a pretty fellow. Cheers from Oklahoma!!!

I love your work. So does my cat!

Marvelous little side table, again your workmanship is beautiful! The legs with the gold tips remind me of furniture my parents had in our home in the late 1960s .

Lovely piece. I love that you kept the unique handles too

Amazing talent the first tool sounded like nail's on a chalkboard I was releaved when you got your other tool the carbide scraper it always amazes me your apron is spotless I'm such a messy painter I even had acrylic paint on. My cheek I forgot the paint brush had paint I get it everywhere great craftsmanship see you in your next video 😊

It wasn’t as bad as I initially thought it was, but it looks “2000”times better! Love the legs & your constant attention to detail. The sound of the birds was nice in the background, but I prefer listening to your accent 😉
