    Nice save. The difference in colour on the tips of the legs almost give it that "brass foot cap" effect.

      What a sexy table!! The fix you did on the legs is so cool and looks so purposeful that I could even see doing it on perfectly healthy legs as a design choice. Question....you shellaced before attaching the new veneer and I haven't seen that done before. What is the reasoning for it? Thank you.

    I love watching you work and the ideas you apply. One thing I have done as a 25 yr wood restoration tech is the use of touch up paint to neutralize any dark imperfections that I don't like. I would also seal any artwork under a couple coats of stain and a couple of clear coats... Either way your work turned out great!!
