I belong to several different SM lists, but have been hanging out here because I'm looking for a more "informal" atmosphere. (I must admit that I also "feed" off the excitement of those new to collecting!) This is a hobby for me, one I've shared with family and friends and one that has been a wonderful diversion through some really rough times, but is certainly not the most important thing in my life.
So--entertain me some more! I love hearing about all of your "new" machines!

Miz Johnny we love having you here! I am 4 pages behind so this may have been answered, but what is CRS?

Can't remember stuff or another "s" word that's an synonym for stuff. Mine is galloping CRS by the way.

Hello,
I will be doing lots of reading here to catch up, so if I chime in at the wrong place, please forgive me. Love Vintage Machines... I have several. I'll catch up with you all soon.

You can not have to many pictures to share.

I agree! The more photos of the machines the better. Congrats on your nice finds!

Glenn, I think most of us here are like you. I can't part them out either -- I end up fixing them!
