Designed for amateurs interested in the restoration of antique or period wooden furniture, this handbook provides step-by-step explanations of techniques and methods. Emphasis is on surface restoration rather than on structural changes. The user is not expected to be a skilled cabinet maker, but he or she will be shown, in step-by-step detail, the most frequently encountered restoration tasks and problems. The experienced amateur should have no difficulty in following the techniques and methods utilized, while the less experienced should find much practical information showing how objects can be restored.
