I fix your crap for you... that i if it aint got no dern 'puter chip in em..
Fans, lamps, dungarees... Couches, cabinets
Btwn Mary and I, we can fix almost everything.


Here below is a 1940's table that was painted (I know! PAINTED! How gross?) Purple! And before it was Red... Ad before that WHITE! Its almost down to bear wood now... I am going to be restoring the table (fixing the leaf, building a new pine drawer) and refinishing (staining and clear coating)

Watch the progress... Ill keep you updated... (oh p.s.
I am cheap)

upcoming projects... a 5 foot tall giant lamp that is a iron stairway (yeah... Just got to see it)
Also some Heywood-Wakefield couches and a foot stool. A Sikes 20's umbrella stand.
Lots of Arts and Craft era rebuilds and woven chairs!
I have been doing this stuff since I was a kid.. I learned it from my pa... as he did from his...
Granted it took me a long time to realize that some times its ok to be like your father.

Thanks Richard Christopher Straiton... (Its almost his B'day)
