Antique roll top desk restoration
I've always wanted one of these desks and finally completed restoring the wreck I bought last July. It arrived in pieces, with at least a third of its glued joins open, the top badly warped, lock smashed and the tambour in pieces. The base had wet rot around the edges, a number of components had snapped, shattered or needed replacing such as a few draw components.

Vintage office chair restoration
Early twentieth century office chair restoration. Completely dismantled due to joints that had opened and become very loose. All joins cleaned, damage repaired and re assembled before refinishing. The height and angle adjustment had seized completely requiring a soak in oil before being dismantled, scrubbed with a steel brush and re assembled and resprayed. It works beautifully now.
