Nancy,
We just brought it in the house an hour ago (it was still out in the truck from the trip). It has a place of honor at the end of the hallway in our upstairs! I don't know if I'll do anything to it or not. I think I'll just live with it for a while and decide later. It really doesn't look too bad in person. The wood is nice and smooth where folk's forearms have been resting on it. The machine and treadle really needs oil badly, everything is kind of stiff. The needle in the machine is longer than a modern needle. I'm very pleased with it and am looking forward to sewing with it.
