    The word restoration almost seems inadequate for the beauty, craftsmanship, and restored pride of place you two bring to these items most would just normally cast off. Bravo! It's an honor to be able to watch these items being brought back to their former glory.

    I think it's cool how the sled had "repairs" done to it so someone must have used it alot. It's a fine testament with the full restoration. Merry Christmas and may God bless you all.

    I wait impatiently for your videos and am never disappointed. I escaped from my regular profession for a couple of years some time ago and worked with an expert blacksmith and carriage maker. We built new and repaired old wagons, carriages, sleighs and carts so I know how much work goes in those pieces and also know they fall apart if not done right. You did it right. Excellent work!

    I had one of these, except it was a single seater. Used to speed downhill a km or more, took us half an hour to get back to the top just to do it again, and again and again. My mother used to drag us in 10 at night, no hats, gloves, trousers frozen into a pipe and we were steaming hot. Everything dried up by next morning, just to do it again. By the way, winter holidays went from November to February, there was no coal to heat the classroom. Thanks for bringing back happy childhood memories, have a nice Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year.

    A Beautiful restoration! As a child I had ridden on one similar. It was built by the Mennonite father on the farm next to us, I watched in awe as his 11 kids each had a handmade sled! They knew which was the best hills to go on and how to fly with their wooden sleds! They knew how to have fun! After frozen hands and rosy cheeks and noses there would be hot chocolate with a peppermint stick in it, being sipped by the fire place. Memories I will always treasure! Yor restoration makes me wish for those days again. :) Thank You! I wanted to add I own a ole gal of 14 yr old Chihuahua the same color and all as the one you have here, her name Is cinnamon , nicknamed Minnie. A beautiful family you have. Love the smiles!
