The New Home's decals aren't that great but I do like the face plate. We really got it for the base so we can play with our other New Homes. The second set of irons I'm planning to use for a base for the New Home CZ - slip the motor belt off and on with a treadle belt. The action of the treadle is so smooth and quiet that I expect it to mate up well with the smooth rotary machine

The hand crank was a surprise - we don't see that many of them in antique stores around here. I think that's only the second or third we've seen. They're great for adding to the collection since there's no cabinet to take up space and no wiring to worry about.
