I want a Hamilton Beach motor conversion, brand not important, and at least 1 or 2 examples of early potted motor types. It probably won't happen due to costs but I'd like at least one or two pre-1900 machines from before the modern shape we're used to seeing was settled on. What I'm aiming for is at least one representative of each of the different styles of machine up to now, preferably with some of the cool engineering and designs they've had over the years.

Sounds like you have a pretty good idea of how to round out your collection. Ideally I'd like to have one of every Brother model from 1954 to about 1968 and one machine from as many different Brother badged machines as I can find. I'll need a much bigger house as there is at least 20 badged names that I know of.
