    The glass repair was amazing to me considering the heat it would bee exposed to.
    The knowledgable, methodical, patient methods you use once again produce a serious work in the restorer's art.
    It is becoming apparent that Avril is gaining a considerable amount of knowledge.
    Keep an eye.

    It's what in furniture restoration is called an 'honest' restoration, that is, any repairs are visible (the glass) and that the patina of years of use is not lost. Great job. As ever, Avril - the cat inspector is on hand to ensure its done properly!

    Does anyone else have their ASMR triggered from watching these, or is it just me ? 🤔 The clicking, moving the tools and pieces around, water/cleaning solutions pouring....all of it is soooooo f'in great to hear !!! I can't be the only one who watches not only to see items get cleaned and brought back to life but just to hear the sounds of working. I also experienced this years ago watching Mr. Roger's Neighborhood when he'd use scissors to cut construction paper to make crafts (although I didn't know what the term was back then of course). Watching these are extremely relaxing. And the fact that he doesn't talk at all or have any annoying ass background music is a plus. This guy gets it !! 😎💪💪👍

    Nice finish! Keeping it vintage goes well with the fact that the glass is broken. And nice short shorts too 😄

    I loved this restoration and I'm glad you didn't paint it and just cleaned it up and repaired it and got it working. It was nice to see Avril doing her supervision job

    Nice job! What kind of glue did you use? I hope it can take the heat.
