1890's Candy Scale Restoration

In the antique restoration video, I am restoring an 1890's Chatillion and Son's candy scale. I came across this at a yard sale. The owner said they had it sitting outside for 20 years or more. This was a challenging project but I am very pleased with the finished product. If you have any questions, let me know!
