Have you ever restored a clunker table?

I consider myself an amatuer at this, but I have done some pretty good work in taking a table ready for the trash and turning it into a working beauty. I have MANY examples but here is an interesting one. There are many AR/XA table lovers out there..its a very simple sweet sounding table but hard to mod because its suspended. I not only restored it but replaced the straight arm tube with a tube from a SL-1200 Technics..so slight spin...when it arrived (you will see) it looked like it sat in a wet basement....not for long...LOL
