Skip,
What a beautiful cabinet and machine! Someday I hope to do some veneer replacement. And hope it comes somewhat close to looking as good as yours does. Cathy

Thank you guys for your compliments on the VF and cabinet. I usually am such a traditionalist and try to restore items to their original state if possible but after years of antique repair I just had to let go and have fun with this one. I had so fun with this one I just may do it again....

I just bought another two machines. The first is a 99K, amazingly cute and looks almost new except for the usual scratches where a pincloth has been.

Skip,
Awesome. Can you rig a music box that plays "Hail to the Chief" when the lid is opened? Really spectacular. Jon

It is exciting when you start having machines dropped on your doorstep! What is really cool is the machines that are being given to you probably all have a history you will hear about! That is fun!
