Specialized Vintage Restoration

I offer advanced restoration techniques that go beyond standard repair. This includes professional rust removal via electrolysis tanks to save frozen parts and custom machining to fabricate obsolete components for machines like the Singer 115 or early treadle models. I also provide high-end hand-applied gold leafing and Tiffany decal preservation to return family heirlooms to their original 1910s glory.
