Wanted to show off this very good looking 1939 silvertone table set I had refinished and recapped. Picked off Craig's list $50 , not bad at all.

   Very nice Fred  As always you do a very good job of making the radios look like they have not been refinished.
  I do like the style of this one, it has a very warm look to it .
 Thanks for showing it .. Dan in Calgary

Looks good!
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
