I was SO worried while this old gal was in transit.... I knew my Mom would pack it well, but UPS is always scary.
We did have two "injuries" in transit. The spool pin was bent a bit but that was an easy fix, and one of the VERY unusual hinges was broken. I will be able to fix it, but I will have to drive out the hinge pin to remove the remainder to do the repair, THAT will be after the event this weekend.
Without further delay her she is in all of her flowery glory as she arrived, before the 4 hours of very focus (read
bsessive) cleaning.

The hand wheel is with me today at work and will be put on the lathe and polished.
