David runs Mayfield Restorations from a home workshop in the North West of England, sourcing vintage pieces and giving them a working life again; he is self-taught and shares the process as he learns it. This video takes a 1930s Jentique writing bureau through stripping, repair and refinishing.

Each issue this slot carries one video from a working maker showing a technique, a tool or a repair. The video is the maker's own and plays from their channel; we add the context. Send yours to editor@thefurnituremagazine.com.
