    I'm 72 years old and I can totally agree that the sheet metal seat was quite the surprise. I've been refinishing furniture since I was 20 and I've never seen anything like it. Awesome work as usual. Where were you when I was refinishing and repairing the 1920's waterfall dressing table? I could have used some advice😁

    Watching this man restoring furniture is one of the most rewarding, entertaining, educational and professional experiences,ever. As I've said once before, if these restored items could speak, they'd sing his praises. He's what to furniture restoration as Michaelangelo was to fine art 🎨. Well done, Sir 👍👏
