I couldn't think of any other thread to put this in. This guy has absolutely incredible skill to not only restore this, but to make it even better than it was:
Astonishing.

Interesting 'resto' - it looks better than it would have done when it came out of the factory. Brushed nickel does look good though. Not sure about putting your fingers into the de-ruster solution though ; You'd need ventilation for the nickel plating and suitable PPE.
I must dig out my vintage adjustable.... now where did I put it?
Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks for posting Gazz, kind of therapeutic watching that!
Also reminds me I need to ask my neighbour for my “llave inglés” English key as an adjustable spanner is known around these parts!

I presume you have all read about the head of the Spanish FA señor Rubiales. If you haven’t he is the man who placed an unwanted kiss on the mouth of the Spanish captain; carried another player over his shoulder on the pitch; grabbed his crotch in celebration of the victory whilst standing next to the Spanish queen and her daughter; produced a fake statement from the player he kissed; and he tried to coerce her into making a joint rebuttal statement. Whilst also saying people who think he behaved inappropriately where fools. There was a conference today at which he was supposed to announce his resignation he refused and went on a rant. This was met with widespread applause in the auditorium. This country has a problem with machismo and it will be interesting to see where this goes next

It's just another indicator of the state of the world today. I mean, how else can a serial bankrupt, compulsive liar, alleged thief, racist and legally declared sexual predator who attempted to incite a coup in order to overturn an election result that saw him removed from office ...... (pauses to draw a deep breath)......possibly be the frontrunner to challenge the sitting US President at the next election? The world is completely f***ed, Duds and Rubiales is just one of the many reasons why. Those that applauded his rant are the biggest problem for me, in the same way that Trump's supporters are a bigger problem than him - without their morally and intellectually bankrupt audiences, these morally and intellectually bankrupt a***holes wouldn't have a voice.

Another repugnant individual who feels he can act anyway he likes because of his "elevated" position.

You may be pleased to note that one of the other candidates for the Republican nomination recently likened the female, black, progressive Democratic representative of Massachusetts, an outspoken opponent of racism, a racist. In doing so, he likened her to a Wizard of the modern Ku Klux Klan. It seems that just when you thought that the "popular" political right had finally dredged the bottom, they find another candidate, from even further down the evolutionary ladder than the last. It seems that the policy, and I think that it is a deliberate policy of the political right, including in this country, to demolish any sense of decency and moral scruple and reduce "debate" to the lowest common denominator, thereby causing division where none should exist. They use race and gender to name but two. They promote ignorance (see the arguments against climate change for proof of that) over knowledge, hate over harmony, and they do it because, as the policies they have consistently promoted since the mid 1970's begin to demonstrably unravel, they have nothing else to offer.

That's probably why they're still allowing Trump to run for office. "Their policies are appalling!" "Yeah, but look, it's Donald Trump!" It's as clear a case of 'look at the shiny, shiny' as you can get.

Luis Rubiales: Spanish FA activates 'sexual violence protocol' after Jenni Hermoso kiss - www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66633123I don't know about anyone else, but I hope Pablo Zabaleta isn't thinking of going to Spain anytime soon, as it might get him some unwanted attention!
