Question - I'm getting to clean some machines. Do I wax the Godzilla finish on the 128 or leave it more textured? Mine has no decals. Would it look better shiny or unshiny?

Do you mean a picture of a big tote full of accessories? Or do you want me to sort them out??? I got some of them sorted out.... I bought a wooden drawer unit a couple years ago - it only has 42 drawers and they are stuffed. There has to be a better way to organize this stuff. |

The wooden thing works ok but I can't see what is in the drawers - I think I need a label system. This thing is a nice size. I have needle plates for looks like T & S and manuals too...

Not that I ever expect to see this post again, sigh, but thought I would tell you I found two cabinets today with the prongs still attached, and my little Olson fit into the smaller one. Darn. Oh, I am sooo glad to have it in the cabinet, but the other one, which was only a half inch too big, has a motor and wiring attached, and I was hoping to be able to use it to run the Olson. Of course, I guess I could move it to the other machine, huh? Dh is not handy with that sort of thing, and lately I seem to do myself bodily harm at least once a day....but my next door neighbor has advertised handyman services. Hmmmm.

I saw this on CL and was thinking about sending Lisa over to get it for me, that is a great deal on the machine whether its got a cracked base or not. Welding is not an option because you would ruin the finish so I would not even attempt that one. I would imagine that you could use the machine if you wanted to crack or no crack.
Billy My advise is don't buy it, Billy. IF you're buying it for a collection, you know that condition is everything and you just can fix a cracked base. ~Cindy |

I believe I have an old manual for that machine- at least it looks just like that machine. It says Necchi BU. Looks like it will be a very nice machine. The machine will need to stay in that cabinet - I 'm thinking they don't interchange with anything else - but I've been wrong before....

Fellow VSM members:
I am on the lookout for 2 items. If anyone spots these or has these for sale, please PM me: Japanese clone of Singer Model 15 (non-black) Bentwood domed machine case (for my Singer 66 handcrank) Thanks!! http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=8834787 is a pretty blue clone, with the chrome trim around the stitch regulator and such. I have two blue ones, because blue is my favorite color. One is two-toned, but one is almost like this one. |
There is a guy on ebay or was that sold reproduction Bentwood cases in 3 different finishes. I will try to find them tonite after dinner and see if I can post the listing.
