    Default New member would like some advise in the future

    Hello newbie here. I don't know anything about woodwork, That's why i'm here. I collect clocks and most of the cases are a bit naff. And in the near future would like some advise on restoration and cleaning.
    Cheers

    You might want to take a look a this section of the forum, FINISHING & RESTORATION

    Are you intending to do the restore your self?

    Thanks for the welcome.
    Yes i intend, not so much restore ( I'm not that capable to restore ) but just to clean up the clock cases, Leaving the patina, removing scratches and fixing broken parts, things like that
    Cheers
