Well folks, It is not as complete as I was hoping. but with the number of requests that I have been receiving lately to get my collection online has spurred me into a form of action.
the site
http://www.victoriansweatshop.com is now up and running.
I had not realized how bad some of the photos that I have in the collection are. I will work on getting better shots ASAP.
Right now the site is just the core stuff with 12 pictures of each of the machines.
I will be sorting out all of the 1800's documentation and trade cards this weekend and getting them scanned and posed as well.
The next phase is to add a "info" box for each picture, so I can share more of the fascinating history of some of these machines.
Then we will be adding the ability for me to be able to add machines "on the fly", once that is done I will modify the site to allow other to post their collections in a "Friend of the VSS" portion.
The final phase is to add a chat function.
