Default What is a Success Story?

I have had a few PMs regarding what belongs in this section, so to clarify:

A "Success Story" thread should be one containing some details of the work done. Rather like the Recent Repairs on my website or the repair/restoration articles in the magazines, but not necessarily that long. It helps if there is something interesting or unusual about the repair, but that is not essential. What is needed is some detail though, to give others confidence in tackling repairs themselves.

It is for repairs/restorations that are finished. If only part of the job is done, it is not yet a success story. Obviously you as the restorer decide when it is finished, as it is your set. You don't have to do things just because others would.

Success stories should not be asking for further information or need further discussion - although that sometimes results anyway. So if you have questions about parts of the repair, ask them elsewhere first.
