I think I am going to have to find me one now. I have just about fallen in love with the little fellow!!!

The cabinet you showed is very nice. Did you buy it?

oooooh Charlee, nice!

Didn't know about shopgoodwill.com. Have thought about posting a craigslist ad for vintage machines. I bet there are tons lurking in closets, etc. just waiting for a new home. :thumbup: :thumbup:

the *really* nice part is that I got the 1st Damascus for $6.00 plus $15 shipping...and this one is coming to me for $7 plus $14 shipping....so $42 got me these two machines that were originally sold by Montgomery Wards. :)

Really nice part? How does that happen? I have been thinking I need to go to the Eastern side of the states to get REALLY good deals but I know you are in the West with me. I am flabbergasted :roll: :roll: :roll:

I think your term is 'drooooooooooooooool'. Congratulations! My hat is definitely off to you and all the rest of you who get those really, rreally good deals. :D
