Excellent work Sheri. That is one of my favorite styles of cabinets.

I just acquired a cabinet that looks just like that (I think....I'll have to take a picture of it as a "before." It came with a Singer 201-2 in it. I fell in love with the cabinet and want to restore it. Any and all tips for restoration will greatly be appreciated!!!

Fantastic! Gorgeous! Great save. What did you use for finishing in lieu of shellac?

That is amazing. I have seen dozens of those in the before state, but NEVER in the After state. No wonder those were so popular when new... super job!

My 201-2 is in a cabinet exactly like that--but I'm not much into refinishing wood, and this machine sews perfectly even in the cabinet that needs a lot of TLC (I have to wrap a scrap of fabric around my arm of a thing that holds the end flap up when I am working with the whole cabinet spread out--the horsehair stuff has completely worn out and leaves scratches on my top when I open it out, then when you put the top back up, there isn't enough padding to hold the arm in place in it's little hole); pretty confusing, huh, but I did figure it out quickly when I first got the machine because I didn't want the top to get scratched any more than it already was. It has been in use in my sewing room, as is, for about 15 years now.

Very nice. I've redone several and it takes so much work but is so worth it.
