    I’m not much of a commenter-my natural inclination is lurking - but your reminders about it making a difference has finally convinced me.
    I love all of your projects, of which I’ve seen many by now, and I especially enjoy the variety of sensibilities and ideas . The results are not always to my personal taste, but the range of styles and remaking techniques is always interesting.
    Also really impressive it the skillful way you’ve edited the videos. They’re never repetitive but I also get a good idea of how you’ve done things, exactly; this is something that does not always happen with other rehabbers.
    Thank you!

    My friend who is an electrical engineer and 73 years old nearly had a heart attack when you ripped out the speaker! He LOVES the old valves inside and nearly cried himself to sleep. Funny, how one person's idea of furniture or older item is precious and to another is junk. I love the finished cabinet, and am glad you kept the heritage of the piece by keeping the old labels.
