“Sooner or later, everything old is new again.“
-–Stephen King
I’m pretty sure Mr. King wasn’t referring to old pianos when he uttered that famous quote, but I think it’s fairly appropriate in reference to today’s video.
I have always been fascinated by how skilled craftsmen can take an old, dilapidated piece of “junk” and restore it back to new condition.
Watch this short video and you’ll see first-hand exactly what had to be done to restore a century+ old upright piano and make it like new again.
The actual restoration project took several months to complete, but thanks to the wonders of time-lapse photography you’ll see all the most important tasks completed in just a few minutes.
Watch, and enjoy…
