Pictures show machine in as acquired work clothes (several layers in fact and this is the desert.) SWMBO acquired this from a yard sale in 2004 for $25 and worried that she paid too much. It was in sad shape, rusty table, busted trunions and missing parts. The plan was for me to use it as lawn art at the Dawg Ranch, but discovering that it and I were of similar age a working restoration was in order. Replaced what I could and made bearing spacers, spring guide block etc. Still need to make wooden blade guard and four cover knobs.
