Restoration

A long video, but if you go at 1.5 speed it's OK. This guy found an office credenza and decided to restore it.,
The workmanship and attention to detail is really something. The top had a huge unrepairable gouge at one end. FF to the end (about 26:00) to see how he dealt with it. I found his approach to repairing veneers really painstaking.

Wonder why not use Bondo on the gouge?
Getting the stain and color to match would be a bitch, not to mention the grain. It would be obvious that you're trying to hide a defect. So, rather than hide it, make it a "feature."
