I was able to restore this table that was surely headed for the garbage. I had to re fabricate a majority of the table the feet and legs are completely new. I was kind of disappointed with the color but that’s what the customer wanted so that is what they get.

I was going to compliment the results. But if you don’t like it, then I’ll back you up. Your work is exceptional.

do you bring a bag as an excuse to get in so you can cruise the place ?
looks good , and the price is right .
