Saw Tooth

New repair - table from India. The saw tooth decoration on the apron was broken off and missing in several places. I put white paper behind the decoration - sprayed black paint to create a positive and negative template. Than holding the template behind the decoration I could trace what was missing rather than replace the pieces making 90 degree straight butt cuts.

Don't like my file cabinets ? I'll have to paint them all the same color :)

Neat trick on duplicating the saw tooth - Steve.

Maybe I don't get around much, but don't run into much of those types of antiques. Could be due to
not being a wood repair/refinishing spet?

So many of the younger are opting for the cheap off shore made junk (wood, light metal, or even plastic).
Money, I think is part of it and priorities (big screens!!).
