Watching them always calms me down and usually helps to keep the attacks at least very minor. My husband noticed, and he will even send me them on occasion, just to make sure that I am okay.

    Best Restoration channel on CZcams! I love your attention to detail and dedication to making the pieces look as they would have right off the assembly line. You've set the bar so high, I just get frustrated with the other channels CZcams puts in my feed! Keep up the amazing work! I can't wait to see your next video!

    Your videos always fascinate me! Every time you bring in a piece so badly battered and corroded and looking like it’s beyond repair and I’m thinking, “There’s no way he’s gonna be able to restore THAT!” and, “How on EARTH is he going to be able to restore THAT?” and you always amaze me! I love watching the sandblasting too, but just as much I love to watch the powdered painting and the curing of the powered paint just to see what color it’s going to be! I also love to watch you meticulously take apart every little piece, clean it, blast it, remove the rust and paint, powder paint it, cure it, grind it, build new pieces, nickel plate it, make new stickers and put them on, and put everything back together again! It’s so fascinating seeing the inner workings of these antiques and collectibles! Wonderful videos!

    That also could have been amazing with just the paint removed, the oil-stain patina looked great on the old tin, but amazing work as always, do love that you powder coat these, and not using cheap rattle cans on them. Classic craftsmanship like this deserves more respect than a 4.98 can of spray paint from the local mega mart.
