Rocketeers tend to be high up here. Not necessarily a bargain for that setup but worth taking a hard look at it.

I don't remember if this machine has been posted here before.

Another one I would be sorely tempted by.

That is also a great deal! I am pretty well set for Howe A machines, but that treadle is awesome! Eventually I'll need to pick one of those up.

I can't get at it right now, it's behind another row of cabinets. I don't really want it, I just wanted to try and fix the machine. It has a bunch of accessories, cams, etc. that go with it. When I get it unburied, it's yours.

There are times I'm happy I'm broke and out of space. If I bought every machine that caught my eye I would need a decent sized warehouse for them all. That Howe and the White from a few days ago together would be a good representation of the early evolution of the modern lockstitch machine, the direction I want to work toward for my collection. I will get it there eventually.

EDIT: Careful with this group Monopas. If we start thinking you want cabinets you might find yourself buried under them. I think most of us have more cabinets than we really want.

I don't know the brand of the stand but this one could be salvaged easily.

Having a small car with lousy space has saved me from a fair bit of furniture folly. Besides, most machines in tables here are wildly overpriced, at least the ones I've found. And I shouldn't even think about another Kenmore cabinet, when I really need ones that will fit my Singers. Mid-century modern is a weakness that gets me in trouble. I have a Danish modern chair that I don't even know how I fit in my car to get home.

I'll still probably take that table if Cari digs it out. That is what rental cars are for!
