Default Re: What is a Success Story?

I think that part of the problem here is in the definition of conservation and the grey area between that and restoration.

The simplest level of conservation would be taking a radio from the floor and putting it on a shelf to ensure no damage occurs. Not a lot to write up here.

The next level of conservation could possibly cleaning an polishing. Still not a lot to write up.

After that comes the need to take restorative measures, woodworm treatment, gluing the case back together etc. Personally I still do not think that warrants writing about. For me, I am only interested in reading about projects that bring a set back to working order.
