The Furniture Doctor

However Grotz wrote most of this before the development of many current ideas about how to preserve antiques. I imagine that employing some of his suggestions might lead to a reduction in the market value of an item. However, I don't think it will ever lead to a reduction in your personal enjoyment of the piece. Im so glad to have a copy of this book again-I used to borrow it from the library-havent seen it in years, and have missed it BADLY!

How to Strip Stain From Wood : Furniture Repair Tips

It is just a fun read, besides having alot of great information presented in a really delightful manner. Mr Grotz has a very low-to-the-ground type of style that is refreshing-he demistifies the entire subject of antique furniture and its care. If you are dealing with MAJOR museum quality antiques-this aint the book for you, but if, like most of us, you are just collecting a houseful of affordable, cool 'old stuff'-this is THE book to have! A little bit tired in content, but useful for antiques, restoration, repair of older finishes.

It precedes modern finishes so understandably doesn't add much for more modern stuff, but very useful detailed information. I've used this book for 30 years - to learn about furniture, to learn about tools and, most of all, to learn how to finish, re-finish and repair furniture. It's an invaluable reference and guide with no pretentions. The drawings are excellent - you're not buying a lot of glossy photos of unaffordable furniture.
