He was afraid the van would max out on weight so he piled cabinets on top of the machines. Nothing was damaged!!! There are some pretty cool machines in the load. OH and we have to go get the rest on Tuesday.

Geeze, Miriam that is going to keep you busy for a while! What a haul! My DH would have a fit if I brought home that many machines, but what fun!

I think mine kind of cringed but he is a good enabler. He must figure if I'm busy I won't drive him crazy or something... That is in my shop. The other side is where I try to work.

Gosh Phil Miriam had you busy with this haul and more to come. When are you going to open your shop? lol

Uh Glenn I'm still learning... Joe says he and his wife want to come and play some time - rewire some stuff - desperately needs to be rewired. I wonder if that little black machine was for a child? It is very small. I can't read the name - anybody else read it?

I tried again and I can not make out the name. Wipe it down with water sometimes you can read it before the water drys

Ok - I'll try that - there is an out line where something was. Did you notice - it has the stitch length knob!!!

COOK? Nobody would eat it if I cooked it - sewing machines are a bit chewy don't you know?
