Default Clock in the shape of Vintage Singer

I received the most wonderful surprise in the mail! It is a custom built clock that my son built that is in the shape of a vintage Singer treadle sewing machine. It even has a leather belt on the turn wheel. The spindle has a little "thread" on it too! The workmanship on the is absolutely amazing! I'm posting pictures of it, but the pics do not do justice to it. And, if anyone is interested, you could have one to match your particular sewing machine, just send me a pm. I am still reeling with joy over this most precious gift!

Man that is an awesome gift. My sister once bought me wallpaper border with older machines on it, it is still up in my bedroom. Just love it and do not want to part with it.
