Just beautiful! Did you get a repro wheel and hand crank? Or were they salvaged from another machine? Glenn's case is a great setting for it. :)
It is a reproduction hand crank. It had gold lettering in Chinese, but I painted over it. It is not near as good a crank as the original. It makes a noise that sounds like a frog croaking when you turn it. I need to try to put some more lubricant on it to quiet it down.
