I love the natural wood showing. I never "paint" anything I restore.

Can I come too??? I'll bring one of my cabinets, cheese, crackers and a good white wine. Fun and good time will be had by all! Seriously though, I do have a perfect candidate cabinet for the process.

That cabinet looks wonderful. Nice job. What about the iron treadle works? How is that cleaned? I just keep dusting mine, but they could use some work.

We wiped down the iron with sewing machine oil at the same time we oiled the working parts.

I would clean, lightly sand and wipe on padding shellac to bring back the luster.
