    I perked up!! (Imagine that! ;) :lol: ) Asked what she'd want for it, and she said, "Oh... $20 I suppose....it needs to be cleaned up" and told me that she'd stop back by the office when she was done out at the unit.

    What she pulled out of her truck to show me was a Queen Anne cabinet (burled walnut, needs some TLC) the matching stool, and when opened, the machine is a 15-91! I handed her the $20 immediately!!! :lol: The stool is a storage stool, and is full of old spools of thread, needles and notions....along with a box of blackside attachments!!

    Need I say it?? Yeah...I think I will....

    WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    I'll post some pics when I get her home and cleaned up a bit!
    Man I am happy for you.Great friend for sell so cheap too.
