Wouldn't it be easy enough to have the roof ripped off and then do the drone aerial view?

Nahh, it's a rental...

I do have a mini drone with a camera (about 6" in diameter total) but the image quality is crudy.

I think your machines look very nice and all in good shape, good job. I like them altogether like that, fun to look at. Makes a great picture.

At about the same time as the Singer treadle purchase I got the White Family Rotary for free from Craigslist.

At this point my wife started to become concerned about all the sewing machines accumulating in the kitchen, but it did not deter me. I then bought the Singer 15-91 and added it to the collection. I promptly rewired it and I'm still waiting on some Singer lubricant to apply to the gears. A couple days after getting the 15-91 I saw a free Singer 500a not far from my house. It would have been absurd not to pick that up, I've got it all oiled up and am also waiting on my Singer lubricant for the gears on that one.

I didn't bother with nice individual pics as these are not overly special machines, but I didn't want to pass the opportunity to show them off a tad.

I've been on pins and needles all day waiting for UPS. It's finally here and in spite of not so great packing, no damage. This fills two of my collection wants in one machine. It's green and it's a hand crank.

It's mid 70's going by the sticker. My 4yr old GD has already claimed it, lol.

I'm thinking Sweet Pea would be a good name for her. She's adorable. Green is my favorite color and I don't have a hand crank (yet).
