Here is a Gavel I created out of some scrap Myrtle. it will be inlayed with ... well, whatever strikes my fancy at the time. This will be a gift for MWB Ed.

Here are a couple of pictures of a completely refurbished and refinished 1912 Victrola. The case was a blend og mahogany, poplar and pine, the gears, tone arm and springs needed rebuilding, and the felt was replaced. I was shocked by just how loud the player is. There you have it, a brand new 98 year old record player. If you have anything you would like restored, just keep Dark Star in mind, stop by or give us a call, we would love to talk to you about your project.
