Stunning. In a world where I keep seeing people covering real wood and even metal or BRICKS with paint and call it "restoration", it's so wonderful to see someone take their time to do it the right way. With a bit of gentleness, that cabinet will look beautiful for a lifetime. Great job.

Absolutely 'jaw dropping' result my friend. This Credenza, at best was firewood. You set yourself an unbelievable challenge to restore it where other people would not have given it a first thought, let alone a second thought, & you did both. Your empathy with the materials in front of you is just SO good, what is broken, you fix. What you can't fix you replace, making it if you have to. What you have finished up with is an 'insane' result almost beyond human comprehension & hard to believe that it is an enormous restoration. SO well done my friend. Cheers, Don from South Aust.

You did SUCH a good job, what with how bad it was originally. It has a very antique and rustic look - whether that was intentional or not, it looks good. I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fan of the handles (I would have spray painted them gold or brass) and would have painted the wood engraved details. But, both of those are personal taste and in no way objectively make it a bad piece. Phenomenal work, as always! ❤️

The restoration is lovely, but my favorite part was when you not only made your own veneer scraper, but you took the time to stain it and make it lovely as well. I really enjoy that kind of attention to detail and drive to make even small things the best they can be.

Total Resurrection Woodwork! Bravo! I truly miss having real wood furniture in the house. Nowadays, everything is either plastic, or particle processed boards, and even cardboard furniture from other Nations... Although, it does fill in a need for the economically challenged- as with me. Unfortunately, it has almost zero worth and moreover, it can never be passed down to our following generation. I wholeheartedly appreciate your dedication and work!♥️

Another brilliant restoration. It's so gratifying to watch. I especially love using the old veneer for veneer repair! Brilliant!

"Credenza" One of my favourite words. Definition 1: A buffet. Definition 2: When her Grandmother saw what Sally wanted to wear on her first day of High School, she had an absolute credenza. ;P Brilliant job! Almost unrecognizable from the before picture.
