Laron's a meticulous and gifted wood turner. Nicely done!

One of the best restorations presented: images and narrative. Absolutely loved the photography's professional touch.

Flat white paint jobs on espresso machines are growing on me more and more over time. This looks fantastic.

Thank you Tom and Gary for the nice comments. I agree with Tom Chips, the color scheme is very pleasing to the eye. I also agree with all the other commenters that your restoration is meticulous - probably the best I've ever seen. You should be proud of what you accomplished. Now you need a Kafatec grinder!!

Absolutely epic rebuild, well done and thank you for sharing.

I have done 3 Livietta/Maximatics, now I pine to do one of these

Is this a pun on a similar named espresso based drink.

Either way I agree the colour works here. Not all colours work with all machines. Esthetics and era play a big part on colour choice.
