S05E14 Smuggler's Telescope

2019-12-05

The team dives into restoring a tippling stick believed to have belonged to George V, a nearly 200-year-old telescope that requires the expertise of optics specialist Richard Biggs, and a Victorian high chair that converts into a rocking chair. Brenton begins with the tippling stick, getting assistance from Will to apply polish. He then crafts a silver quaffing pot designed to hold a dram of whisky for the stick. Will shifts his focus to the high chair, creating a new top piece for its missing back and recruiting Dom to refine the transforming mechanism, while Suzie provides new padding for the seat and back. Meanwhile, Richard starts working on the old smuggler's telescope with some soldering help from Steve.
