You did a beautiful job on refurbishing that cabinet. It looks really loved! I have an old treadle that has been loved by children with stickers! There is hope. :lol:

Wow, what a fantastic job you did on that cabinet! I'm impressed.

No, I will have to follow your directions when I have time.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey, if you're offering a place to sleep I'd be happy to work on the furniture. :wink:

You did a wonderful job, I passed on up just last weekend at a garage sale because the cabinet was so rough. You made it beautiful.

I know its not Ireland, but if you come do some cabinets, and Billy stops by on his trip to help with the machines, I would be in heaven!

You should have put this in the tutorial section for those of us who don't know how to refurbish furniture. You did a beautiful job!

Such a treasure. You could not buy a foot for that price. So glad you found such a bargain...and that you really appreciate the beauty of that machine. You did a great job restoring it.

Sounds like the bug has indeed invaded. Keep us posted with your new upgrades.
