1942 Beals and Selkirk Military Footlocker Restoration

[@DANYMITERESTORATION]

I can understand why you decided to maintain its original character and only do the cleaning. Love the item!

[@RestorationbyAlabamaCreeks]

I was thrilled to find that military relic. Let me tell you it was stinky. Really appreciate you cruising my channel.

@@RestorationbyAlabamaCreeks I just picked up a box that was thrown out. cant wait to start on it

[@RestorationbyAlabamaCreeks]

@@elisargevidal2252 hope your smells better than mind did. I could never figure out what might have caused it to smell so rancid. It’s fine now. I think the matte finish protectant spray helps.

I started cleaning the box and it is originated at Luria Steel Co. I wish I could send you pictures before I mess things up

@@elisargevidal2252 Got your photos! That's a nice locker. That steel frame makes it very strong. Is it your intention to paint the exterior? Or just preserve the locker with its current look? It looks like your locker's panels are intact. My footlocker had the plywood damaged by excess moisture which cause the veneer layers to separate. What are you using to clean with?

[@SilvercreekAnimations]

I have one just like this except the corner peices are made of wood and it has feet.

[@RestorationbyAlabamaCreeks]

Excellent. Thanks for comment.
