I remember reading about someone who helps with old machines but didn't bookmark it....anyone know who I'm talking about?

power is out again so I really need to get this machine up and running.

It's Billy (lostn51). Look in the Vintage Machines section. She sure is purdy!

I have one like that - mine is a hand-crank.

Wow, I have never seen a machine like this one. Can you describe exactly what it is and how old. Very cool.

It's a Willcox and Gibbs, don't know the year but it seems in good shape. Was quite dusty when I pulled the machine to the top. Needs a good cleaning too.
