Interesting Restorations

Post by Curt A »

I have the opportunity to obtain a German singing bird cage with two birds. This is currently disassembled because it needs a bellows restoration. I restored a single bird one several years ago, so I am familiar with what is needed to complete it. While searching for info on double bird restorations, I came across this website which is a resource for various other restorations. It may prove helpful for future needs...
