Reports from the Field

now with the all new & improved

Inter-Active Video

These video Reports from the Field provide an up front insider’s view of real projects as they happen. The video style is “rough & ready.” I assume you would like straight talk, hard facts and true grit for free, rather than paying the big bucks for scripted hype, Hollywood glitz and fancy production values. Shaky camera? Gimme a break, I'm probably hanging off the scaffold with one hand to get the shot just for you. -- John

"John regularly posts some of the most interesting & educational restoration videos available via his web site video column Reports From the Field " --David Maas, HistoricPreservation.com

==> Woodwork Repairs: clapboard splits, clapboard replacement, filling nail holes
==> Painting: pre-treatments, oil-base primer, acrylic topcoats

With work underway most fair-weather days June through July. Real-time live broadcasts over the internet, "Real time" means that it is not edited for your entertainment pleasure. It shows exactly what it is like to work for hours upon hours, but it is the real work of this world with real benefits.
