Neat looking machine. It's a very good thing I have to pay attention to realities like a budget and where would I put it?
Otherwise I would be buried under a mountain of machines.

Interesting. I'll keep a lookout and hope to see one of these machines in one of those old pictures of shirt factories from the early 20th century.

What do you use yours for Cathy?

Wow. Cool input and yes Cecilia, I should not even be looking! I figured it was an industrial of some sort and was juts curious. I didn't realize that industrial machines were made for one specific use but it makes sense!

The box on top had me thrown for a loop. That makes sense that it's likely covering where something is missing. It's not destined to come to my home. I have plenty on my hands but it sure is a strange looking beast!
