    I look at that poor thing and wonder: "Was it stored in a swamp?" then I think "I can fix it."
    If it wasn't for the shipping I would want to try.
    I need to not look. It's still tempting.

    Hate to say it, but this one might be a good candidate to make into a painted lamp.

    Fresh from the attic huh? Roof must have had a few shingles missing!

    Give him a good deal on all of the T&S machines - you don't want to mess with them anyway!
