I wonder if you ever think “that will do, it’s close enough “. No, you are such a perfectionist. The miracle that you work on all your pieces is heartwarming. I wish that I had your skill, patience and determination to see that any restoration with my name on it is suitable to fit in a stately home or a palace. Everything that I have seen you do would not look out of place in the very best of houses. Good thing you have Daisy to keep you up to scratch.

At first, I had to laugh at the string ‘drawer pulls’ and at Daisy’s antics, along with the ducks just being ducks- and I completely understand the time it takes to work up the sanding grit- it does take 2,000 years, but the transformation was just phenomenal! That gorgeous wood grain! I was also happy to see that you use Titebond Hide Glue! And I appreciate how you explain your repairs and items that you use! Still cannot get over the final result- I’m certain it’ll bring in a pretty penny! The true definition of “Trash to Treasure!” Bravo, David! 👏👍💖🌟

By restoring that piece of furniture that was abused as a workbench in a garage everyone now can see how brilliant furniture manufacturers and their carpenters were at veneer work. The mirror effect of the veneer on the drawers is utterly gorgeous. And that was an affordable chest of drawers for the middle class of Great Britain back in the twentieth century. Thank you, David for giving us a glimpse of history, and at the same time restoring a very worthy chest of drawers. I almost forgot to say that you, David, have the BEST taste in hardware. I love the new knobs.
