Glenn- I made my own shellac- its a 2 pound cut. should I thin it to a one pound? or does it not matter. Thanks Laura
(2 pound and one pound are strengths of shellac. I don't think the rest of you have to worry about it. I've been getting a little over-involved in the wood work, again.)

Folks- if you haven't tried this yet- please do. It is beyond simple. Don't scrub. Like you are putting moisturizer on your eyelid, like. I am beyond impressed what it has done to the worst looking machine I owned, and just worked over my Davis VF. The bed was so rough it was a challenge to sew with, and now it is quite smooth! Really, really fun! Now, if Glen could just tell us how to do this to our own wrinkles, instead of just our machines, he could make a million bucks! Laura

Although, I went back to take another peek , and I believe it is his undershirt that he is using.

I'm sharing my raisin buns with all of you. I figured if Glenn is showing off his drawers again, I'll share my buns.
