Here it is finished. It's fully sealed and the feet put on. It needs some time to cure, so I removed the machine after the photo. I think the machine is happy in its new home.

Yes, your case would be a good candidate.

Oh, I love that machine. I have a black 201K4 handcrank that I had to “put together” myself (converted it from electric), but I have one like yours on my “want list” to use in my treadle......
