And that's why your customer keeps coming back. I love that the piece still looked old and full of charm, even after a beautiful restoration. The numbering was ("chef's kiss") beautifully done, the amount of patience!!! ❤ and I must say... I just love the way you throw your rag every time you finishing cleaning... it makes me smile every time! Plus, of course, we highly appreciate the Daisy's intermissions!!!

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Hi Angela, thanks so much for such a lovely comment and I hadn’t noticed the rag throwing 😂😂. Thanks for your continued support 😀🐶❤️

[@keyholekate8072]

Once again, a fantastic job David. I must say that you are the perfect embodiment of the old adage, necessity is the mother of invention. The work you did making the brass end cap was amazing, you could not tell the difference with the original. Well done. ❤

[@MayfieldRestorations]

You’re so kind, thanks very much 😀❤️

[@shellydehart8217]

I must agree. I couldn’t tell the difference either. ♥️😊👍

[@annettedieckmann4649]

So great!!❤❤👏👏👏👏

[@lyndseybeaumont7301]

You seem to be taking on more jobs that you’ve never done before. I’ve been watching your channel for about 2 years now and I’m so impressed at how your skills have grown. This is a fine example of you pushing yourself to learn more and try new skills. This snooker scoreboard is a fine piece of history and now, thanks to you, will live on to rescue memories for some and teach a history to others. You should be very proud of yourself David, I wish I had half your skill xxx

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Aww Lyndsey you always leave such amazing comments. Thanks so much and thanks for all your continued support. ❤️❤️

Hi Kim and thanks for your love,y comments as always. Your continued support is really appreciated 😀🐶❤️

I really enjoyed this David, it was nice to see something I hadn't seen be restored before. Very patient with the stencil, it turned out really well. Beautiful restoration!

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Thanks Buddy. It was a painstaking job but really enjoyable. Shame KZbin didn’t think so 🤣🤣👍

David you did an absolutely stunning job in restoring the Old Snooker Scoreboard and perfection in the stenciling the numbers and dots!!!

I love snooker. It was great to see such an old scoreboard. Very very beautiful David ❤️🤗

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Thanks very much Ismail. It was great fun to work on 😀❤️👍

[@Restomaniac]

@@MayfieldRestorations I'm sure it is 😀 I think it's a scoreboard from the 80's, from the time of Steve Davis.

[@Restomaniac]

But since it is 100 years old, it is a very popular design.​@@MayfieldRestorations

You A+ it! You didn't need to ask us to wish you luck. You are talented enough, meticulous enough, and conscientious enough to get the job done! Proud of you; clever you. It looks gorgeous.

Great job, David!! It looks brand new! It's a good thing that you have this video to prove that you actually restored it, and they didn't buy a new one. LOL Happy 110th Anniversary to the Snooker Club!

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Thanks so much 😀😀

[@karencampbell3943]

Great work! Enjoyed watching your skills recreating this piece of history. The skill of replacing the brass and my gosh those little green dots!

[@MaGa-co8ug]

I have no idea how one keeps score for snooker-or billiards even- but I think You Win! Amazing job and how cool is it that you preserved some actual history? Bet your customer was beyond thrilled. Thanks for the show! (Oh and Daisy has never been sweeter)

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Thank you very much!😀🐶❤️

[@shellydehart8217]

No one would realize that you restored this piece as it looks brand new. Beautiful workmanship. Quite impressed how you made that brass end cap. It looks just like the others. Also thought you did a great job at stenciling the numbers on. ♥️😊👍👍🌟

[@jodidavis6595]

Dang David. Soooo beautiful. Quite the craftsman coming up with that brass save you did. Daisy is always a treat. Thank you for another beautiful save. We can’t lose our history. Especially with pieces like this that aren’t made anymore. ❤️🇺🇸

[@MayfieldRestorations]

You’re very kind, thanks so much 😀🐶❤️

@@MayfieldRestorations autocorrected me. I typed lose and then it changed to loss 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@TheDragonsreach]

David, nice job, but a suggestion for polishing strips of brass like the ones in this, mount them onto scrap wood to prevent accidental bending. I use that trick in model making for fine sanding.

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Great tip. Thanks very much for sharing 😀👍👍

Wow David, you really outdid yourself on this one! A superb restoration and you did an excellent job with the lettering and making the brass end cap 👏👏🤩

Very nice! I was very interested to see how you were going to do the numbering. I know it took forever but I think the result was worth it. So glad you took that oak patch out, the final patch was as good as you could get and barely noticeable. Excellent restoration.

[@doriglenn1358]

Simply amazing, as always! The number painting alone would have scared me away! 💖 Love to see Queen Daisy so playful! Your videos help inspire and fill my heart! -For future reference in case you have to work with metal again, you can use a needle file with a corner (square or triangular) to scribe the back of the piece along the line that needs folding over (or bending) to 45°. It’s the same principle as woodworking using a miter saw except you’re not cutting all the way through, only making it easier to bend the metal. Not knowing this, you’ve managed to fabricate a tiny piece indiscernible from the others, and for that I salute you, sir! You are truly highly skilled and talented beyond description! Well done!!!

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Such lovely comments and very generous, Thankyou. Thanks for the tips as well, i don’t have a needle file so I’ll be searching for one today 😀🐶❤️
