Sending good thoughts your way, Miriam.

That is a nice machine, but not rare. In this area (New England), you could get it for about $20, including the cabinet.

And Joe, I am interested in hearing what you think and what your experience has been.

Miriam, to the one you posted with the sledge hammer and machine carcass; are you sure you saved all the salvageable parts first????? That kinda shook me up. Not fussing here, only commenting.

I have rewired one. It's not that hard. Just go to Rains blog { http://vssmb.blogspot.com/search/label/rewiring }, and read it good. Then for a few additional comments check out my thread:

Then slowly get to it.

I am selling a 15 in an Upscale Barn Sale here today for $100to125, depending on an offer, in a cabinet, all cleaned and oiled and working. We'll see.

That machine had all the good parts taken off long ago. I learned a lot about machines by taking it apart. I used parts on another machine. Not to worry - I don't wreck machines unless they are deserving or I'm having a really bad day... LOL

I've seen dozens of these machines and cabinets - not rare at all.
