I wish you the best of luck with your fine sets, and nice to see them not being scrapped or turned into hipster "art"!

I am going to keep tabs on your FB channel. Added.
Thank you! It's a very rewarding feeling to save a damaged and dead set from it's trip to landfill, and restore it back to original condition. There's a lot to learn, that's for sure! I only started in 2012, so I'm going to be at the "beginners" end of the spectrum for a good while longer yet.

There are a handful of collectors who are younger then me on the group - one of whom is only three hours away (He's the one who gave me the HMV Rangemaster and Trent).
