A great video on how to bend wood to make furniture using a bent lamination
technique. This involves cutting wood into the shape you want, ripping wood
strips, applying glue with a roller and clamping wood pieces into place.
Another good video on stripping wooden furniture. It includes safety tips as
well as all the basic info you need to know like removing old buildup with a
wire brush and air compressor and applying paint thinners or removing it with
steel wool.
