Vacuum hot table for sale

Fellow painting conservators: I am retiring after a very rewarding
career in oil painting conservation.  Conservators know that this
challenging skill not only requires exquisite talents in matching
color and style, but also requires having the right equipment.  One
of the most indispensable items in painting conservation is a proper
vacuum hot table.  This allows for adhering a weakened, old or
damaged canvas to a new canvas backing, using controlled temperature
with a gradual and safe cooling down process.  Truly, this is one of
my most treasured tools and I would love to find it a good home.

If you work in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US and are in need of
a vacuum hot table, this is an opportunity for you to buy a high
quality, gently used table that is nearby and in excellent
condition.   See below for details.
