I just read Glenns post about using linseed oil and alcohol to clean up the finish. I am going to try it first on an electric FR White that I have and then if I get the gorgeous results he showed in his photos, will try on my Jones. Shes sitting on a bookshelf now and no, havent attempted to sew anything yet.

Your coffin top and mine sound similar. rectangular. I love the details on these machines. I printed off a manual for using them a long time ago, would you like me to scan and send it? If so, just let me know.

Jody, now that is what I expect a Jones machine to look like! Your machine is beautiful! The yellow rose is the one I wanted, but I do love mine! Thank you for the offer, but I also printed off a manual from ISMACS site.
