shipping would be a killer...
I like the idea of the dye. |

Very good machines but the operating systems are complex. Lots of things to do to get what you want. Once you do get it down pat, they do an excellent job.

Say one wanted to thin one's herd for whatever reason. How does one go about figuring out which machine one wants to keep and which ones to move out? If I go by the ones I use, I can thin to about 7 BUT is there another method of thinning?

YUP. Get rid of ALL of them at a really exorbitantly high price on Craig's List or Ebay. Then go buy some more at a really low price... :D:D:D

If it is a 306 put that in the box. You don't need the serial number. Is it a 306 that you are getting?

Dang...I don't have the model number...she couldn't find it...so I won't know that until I get the machine from her. Thanks for your help, tho. I'll keep this page number so I can refer back after the machine comes home.

Oh! thank you so much for the information!
I spent all day yesterday just scrubbing and polishing the cabinet -it's in really good condition and it looks like I can just polish out the faint water rings in the shellac. I spent last night after the kids went to bed, cleaning the inside of the machine and it was REALLY REALLY clean. I couldn't get over how little dust/ lint/ oil residue was in her. Now to decide what to do about the iron.... I love that Wilcox and Gibbs, BoJangles! What a beauty! Maybe I'll just try cleaning it first to see what they look like. Stove polish sounds like it would be a good choice. Lehmans carries it. I've never heard of Liquid Gold though - do Lowes/ Home Depot carry it? http://www.lehmans.com/store/USA_Mad...lish___BSB#BSB |
