Oh my goodness! Most of us would fall over if one of those came home with our husband. I think he is GRAND!

Wow its a beauty. Educate me how did you know it was a FW cabinet? I have never seen this type before, but if I did I would load it up right away and bring it home.

I saw one on ebay for $1500.00, so you have found a true treasure.

How did I know what I was looking at? Because Nanna Up North posted hers on November 6, 2011. Never even knew that there was something like this. Seen it in a very large resale store here, went home, smacked myself and grabbed HB and we went back and got it. Figured it would be gone but was still there. It is missing the spool rack inside the door and there are four braces that hold the machine solid, someone bent the ones down that are under the fold down table of the FW, not gonna mess with them, might break off trying to restore to original position. Has lionhead knobs on it, through a PM was informed this is stock along with the feet part. Still waiting on any and all info I can get or find on it.

Wow!!!! I've only seen 1 on EBay a few years ago. Absolutely beautiful!

Nice Christmas gift! I've never seen a FW table like this.

Since these are so expensive, I thought i would let you know that there is a pattern for one to make out of wood. You could google it--I forgot where I got my pattern. Yes, I would love to have an original, but not for the price they want. I know they are rare!

Romance is highly over rated, if you ask me. Wonderful gift!
