    I’m in Montreal and know about the collapse of the Quebec City bridge. As in interesting fact for you - when engineering students graduate from university, they participate in the Iron Ring ceremony. Graduates receive a ring that is said to be made from steel from the collapsed bridge to remind them of their obligations and ethics of their profession. They wear the ring on their little finger of their dominant hand so when it drags on the paper when they work, they are reminded of its symbolism.

    Bit of trivia. My brother in law designed the logo with the Chapman Kids for Chapman's ice-cream. In fact, when they still used the old boxes for their ice lollies, he used my then two year old daughter as the inspiration for the last kid on the end of the box. She still loves that and she's now 32.

      I don't know that the person intended to be rude but it kinda looks that way. I've never seen or heard Alex beg for money. He appreciates support but I don't think it's required. Just watching the videos causes them to make money. Liking the videos makes him money and he has all of what he makes in his store and at auctions. I don't think he needs anyone out there telling ppl to donate. This person is definitely enthusiastic about the channel. I'm just not sure that it's all being said in a way that's very nice. Crazy!!!

    Hi Alex, hope you see this comment. I have been in the antiques business for a long time and have restored many pieces of Oak furniture over the years. Your showcase was most likely a baker's cake display case or maybe a chocolatier's showcase. The original screws on the front would have been round headed brass. However you restore it I'm sure it will look much better. Great videos. Wishing you and your family health and happiness.

    Alex, grab Melissa's hair dryer and use it on the paint on the showcase. When it gets warm, you can peel it off like tape! Much easier than using chemicals. You'll actually see the paint "let go" as it gets warm enough to release. I use a razor knife to lift the edge, then just grab and rip. Won't harm the wood, and is much easier than trying to scrape and sand.

    I had a great deal of fun bidding over the last couple of weeks. It was safe because I knew I’d always be outbid, but it was fun. On your display case : line it with fabric instead of painting. Cut cardboard to fit in each section, wrap with fabric and glue or duct tape it in place and fit each section snuggly into the shelves and back.

    Tip for future hoarder houses. You trashed the refrigerator from the house without checking the freezer. In the 40’s-80’s people would put their stocks, bonds, and other important papers in a plastic bag and put them in a used frozen vegetable or TV dinner box. This was a way to protect the papers from a fire. Some used would put it in the safe deposit box but a lot of people would use freezer to protect their valuables.

    Being born and lived in Quebec City. It was the longest cantilever bridge in the world in its day. It was also the only bridge in
    Quebec City that went across the St Lawrence River to the south shore and Levis. It has two lanes for cars and the CN now Via rail tract for the Quebec Montreal corridor . It was also the only bridge where you could cross after Montreal. Otherwise it was ferries. Actually if you go down east its the last bridge to span the St Lawrence river. The Pierre Laporte Bridge now takes the massive amounts of cars but the Quebec Bridge still works beautifully. I can remember it being continually painted. From one end to the other. First the orange paint then the dark green paint. Every summer for many years. Its a beautiful bridge and if you get the chance drive over it.
