Apparently there's a Phoenix on its way as well! Pretty exciting stuff. I haven't had a spare second to even look her over properly, but I will and post pics ASAP.
    It is exciting when you start having machines dropped on your doorstep! What is really cool is the machines that are being given to you probably all have a history you will hear about! That is fun!

    Grant, you too seem to find the most amazing machines. That is a really nice looking Brother!

    Grant, I would consider your Brother the find of the year. Imagine finding a NOS machine, never used. ,

    Thank you Nancy and Caroline. Actually, this is the SECOND NOS machine I found. I found a Clone badged Morse last year or the year before. That one still had the paper stickers on it inside the harp. It was a beautiful machine too.

    I finially finsihed the cleanup the VF head and the cabinet. She sews very well and is a wonderful machine for binding quilts. The face plate is in the drawer.

    Beautiful job, as always, Skip. Did you put that eagle on the top or was it there already?

    Top was completely void of veneer so I had the eagle inlay and used it. Thought I would have fun with this one.
