I belong to several different SM lists, but have been hanging out here because I'm looking for a more "informal" atmosphere. (I must admit that I also "feed" off the excitement of those new to collecting!) This is a hobby for me, one I've shared with family and friends and one that has been a wonderful diversion through some really rough times, but is certainly not the most important thing in my life.
So--entertain me some more! I love hearing about all of your "new" machines!
Miz Johnny we love having you here! I am 4 pages behind so this may have been answered, but what is CRS?

Hello,

You can not have to many pictures to share.
I agree! The more photos of the machines the better. Congrats on your nice finds!

Glenn, I think most of us here are like you. I can't part them out either -- I end up fixing them!
