Sandblasting the rust
Years disappear before me
Bare metal reborn

Anybody that has ever done a restoration project, whether it be a classic automobile or a cast iron fry pan, knows the satisfaction of making something old new again.

More than 100 CBMM members joined Boatyard Manager Michael Gorman on Thursday, October 13, as he described how shipwrights and apprentices are shaping and carving the new hull for Edna Lockwood like they did more than 127 years ago, while enjoying drinks from a local brewery.
Guests were also asked to share what excited them the most about the historic restoration project. To learn more, visit cbmm.org or ednalockwood.org.

We arrived at the Church of the Nativity early this morning to view the Grotto of the Nativity. The Church of the Nativity is actually part of a much larger compound that houses three different monasteries: Greek Orthodox, Armenian Apostolic and Roman Catholic. The actual Grotto of the Nativity is in the Greek Orthodox section of the compound. This is some of the restoration work going on around the entrance to the grotto. Here a restorationist works to painstakingly uncover fescoes and mosaics that were plastered over during the church's long history.

Church of the Nativity, Bethlehem, Palestine

After gluing, the pieces now lay flat but of course the creases are still visible. I have bought puzzles where a previous owner has painted the creases over with a ball pen and that can absolutely not be recommended. Once the puzzle is assembled the creases are hardly noticeable anyway.
I would be happy to hear from other group members re their experience in this field.
Portrait of Dr. Samuel Gross (The Gross Clinic) by Thomas Eakins. On the left is the post-restoration version; on the right is a pre-restoration version I pulled off the web. (I did not do a color correct).
A major exhibit on the restoration of The Gross Clinic is going on through the end of the year at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

The under seat heater was gone when I acquired my 1957 Isetta and all that remained was the knob and control lever. Being both difficult to replace as well as barely functional I decided to upgrade the heater to the late model version with the heat exchanger on the exhaust pipe. This upgrade required that a second large hole be added to the firewall where the heater muffler is mounted. The choke and heater control cable holes also had to be repositioned above that. I had some good images of the late style heater installation to work with and I think I got it just right. Because the firewall had already been cut away where the old heater had passed through the upgrade should be hard to detect once the lower firewall is repaired.
The pmage on the left is part of a scanned photo which was first posted in the Photo Restoration and Colorization group several months ago. Following a recent discussion on this group, I tried out the technique in question (the Fast Fourier Transform technique) on this problem image with quite pleasing results. See the full image below.
