Default The Herd

I finally put my "collection" together. This is a built-in in my dining room.

From top to bottom:
My grandmother's 206k
A Necchi-Alco I got at a pawn shop for $15. It is locked up and I don't care enough about it to try to fix it. She was actually too tall to put in the shelves, so I had to take her top off! However, now that I'm looking at them, I see that she would fit on the top shelf above 206.
A $30 Atlas that I can't get the stitch length to change.
From a Treddle machine that was trashed. I haven't even wiped her off, I just pulled her out of the garage and put her on the shelf. So I'll soon enough have one of those iron stands with a table top because everything else is ruined on it.

Ok, file too big. Give me a minute to fix it!!
