Yep that's usually the sound byte that plays in my head when I type that.

A bunch of recent re-finishing/restoration projects I've completed. I keep finding nice stuff to work on, but the market is dead. Still--I enjoy the process of bringing new life to these pieces, so I'll keep at it.

From the top: a set of Kaufman tables, 2 Kent Coffey night-tables, a Kroehler boomerang coffee table, a no-name coffee table with nice teak grain, a Deilcraft walnut coffee table, a Kent Coffey chest of drawers, and an RS Associates UFO coffee table (the 2nd one I've done in a couple of years).

Chairish resale value: $10,000 USD
Local resale value: $2,000 Canadian

Agreed. Tony, your posts are always beautiful, you have a real skill. And your apartment is f***n' sweet. Your concert posters are awesome.

A few recent finds...

And in the vein of concert posters, here's a few of mine (if you don't know, my user name is the title of an Avett Brothers song...)

That furniture has such brilliant chatoyance. It just sings. Kudos tonylamer!

Eazy that day one camo has me coming back for another look.

This is the 4th piece I've found in the last month. I swear to god the stuff sells faster than Kiton, and made only a few blocks down from my house!

July is usually dead around here, but was surprisingly great this year. Highlights. All N/A

Linen blend Lee 101 selvedge. Wish these fit me, so killer.

Two Thom Grey blazers. Thom Browne lower line, but still a pop for me.

NWT Nudie

Church’s custom grade

RM Williams boots (another pop for me)

Went back to the dumpster I found the reel to reel in and snagged a bunch of DVDs. This is like 1/4 of the haul. Fun stuff.

Keep rocking it, everyone!
