    I'm just curious about this machine & the price tag.
    Any comments?
    Minni ha ha???? for real?
    I would buy one just for the name (I once bought a "Honeymoon" for no better reason), but the price is ridiculous.
    My lists say possibly Standard, but rather looks like a National.

    OK--can't resist. I may have posted this before (short term memory loss), but have to again. Here's my FranKenKranKer--a New Home with adapter for repro Singer-type HC and a new base (not yet stained).
    Not shown is the latest adaptation--a spring that goes around the handwheel and to the bobbin winder, as this head started life as a treadle.

    Miz Johnny your new home does look like my Davis. I think you have a nice frankenmachine. Don't we have so much fun using these machines? Glenn
