Furniture. Woodworking. Repair.
A year ago we were mid-move. All of our stuff -- well, most of it for the most part -- was on a truck en route to a warehouse.When the furniture, among other things, was finally delivered it came with mostly covered with scratches. We got the estimate for repair. The mover's insurance paid it.A few months ago we enlisted Gabel's to fix it.Today the result arrived back at the house.Working with wood is an art form, more so when it comes to finishing it. These guys have it down. The furniture that came today was as good or better than when we got it the first time around.From working a bit with wood I realize how hard it can be. It's hard to get a smooth finish. An even finish. A finish that matches the rest of the wood. Knowing how to work with the specific species of wood (mostly cherry in our case). All sorts of questions, techniques, and experience.I'm just happy we have our storage space back!
