Yitzchak Goldstein — Machon Ot (מכון אות)
Jerusalem, IsraelWorks from the workshop
Yitzchak Goldstein directs Machon Ot, which he founded in 1986 (5746) together with his late brother-in-law Rabbi Yitzchak Steiner z"l. The institute specialises in the renewal of old Torah scrolls, anti-theft coding, and research into Torah scroll manuscripts. To learn how to renew old scrolls, the institute turned to museums and manuscript experts, who taught them how to restore, repair and date old Torah scrolls and return them to synagogue use. The site states that more than 17,000 Torah scrolls are documented in Machon Ot's international database.

According to the source. Training and background are declared by the sofer. TorahGuard does not verify them and certifies no one. Ask for references as you would with any craftsman — a badly written Torah scroll is passul, and it does not show at first glance.
