Just a little side thought that I had this morning. Recently I sent off a pipe to Briarville to get restored, and I was thankful that there is a place where you can have a nice old pipe refinished, and extend its life. Then just the other day I went to play some records, and my nice old Dual record player started acting up- the tone arm wouldn't reset properly and I've lost one channel of sound. Turns out there is a highly recommended repair shop in Toronto that repairs old record players. It was my dads and I would much rather repair it than buy a new one. Again I was struck by how in this age of planned obsolescence and new-is-better, you can still have things repaired and fixed.
