    Default restored Barnes safe...

    We delivered this safe to MI today. I had never met the owner (until today) so i didnt know what to expect. This was actually his great great grandfather's safe. He was very excited and just loved it. Praise the Lord for a "safe" delivery.

    You are a Rembrandt with safes!

    A question: Do you redo the wood inside too? Looks good.
