    The desk is completely finished now. Polished, waxed, buffed and moved inside.

    Here's how it looked when I dragged it home with me.

    Here's how it looks now. Please excuse my terrible photography.

    This wasn't a particularly challenging restoration, but it was a fair bit of work. Cleaning, rebuilding and polishing.
    Not sure what is next, but there will be something sooner than later.

    While not for your level of skills and experience a hard or perhaps very challenging project, I suspect for others it might have been. The thing I like is how you detail your threads, as you show others how to re-create and put back together a range of nice pieces which otherwise might not be saved for prosperity.

    So very well done, your table looks really lovely and is a credit to you. As ever will keep an eye out for your next project. I must admit I havn't been doing anything woody for a while now. Am time poor what with plastering and painting keeping me busy.
