hardware plating

[Steve Grattan]

Hi Mark,

I have used their services many times and am in fact sending our a set of
parts today.  I find that the turnaround time is more like 3-5 weeks and
they are a bit pricey compared to others I have used BUT  their work has
been wonderful and unmatched by any others.  Detail - such as - not buffing
the edges away and filling in pitting, which are important to my
restorations.  Great work.  Highly recommended.
