Miriam;
Loved the story about the selling of the machine. Would have loved to have seen it in person. Will not comment on loose and/or missing screws because I'm short several as well.

Steve,

That's a great web site you've got going. Are you going to turn the small pics into thumbnails so we can see bigger pics of the machines? I lost my magnifying glass

.

Also, other than the demonstrations, do you use these machines to actually make things?

Yep, the pics will be links to a page for each machine.

I do, but I am better at fixing the machines than I am at tailoring, so THAT side is staying hidden until it is not quite so embarrassing.

Too Cool!

Cool! Please post a photo of this machine if you do purchase it.
