As you remember with the Library in NY. I had to change the method of re-finishing it, just because it was better treatment. I did not even brought this to your attention for I had everything readily available in NY. St. Thomas is not the case. It took me two or even three days to recognize the real problem; molds and fungi in the woods. I also specialize in wood conservation and for me to ignore the problem is like driving through the red lights. If you make this decision for me and tell me, skip this part and start finishing only, I will do this. But please wait for the photos and decide at lunch. What I am afraid of now is that if Dry Rot will set in, it will be extremely difficult to eradicate it and treat it. Apart from this, we made fair progress with preparing the Library to finish. Another very important aspect of this restoration is accommodating the present conditions and finding appropriate method of restoration not only to finish it well but at the same time to prevent bad things to happen in the future. This will include practical solutions as well. Brandon On Fri, Apr 24, 2015 at 7:32 AM, Brandon Thompson Dear Mr. Kahn, wrote: The problem with mold is pretty severe. I have the photos, but I can not send them to you, as I am not able to transfer them from my camera to the computer. I will ask Anna tomorrow, so two of us will come with some solution. Brandon PS I will try to send them to you at lunch time. On Thu, Apr 23, 2015 at 8:25 AM, Richar
