New Toys!

I finally unloaded my latest vintage machine wins and got pictures of them.  The Singer I purchased for the cabinet, not for the machine.  Good news is the parts will work on my Grandmother's machine just fine, so I may have a replacement deck with perfect decals.  I need to get a picture of the deck anyway, so a company I'm working with can make replacement decals.

Here's my $6 win:

As you can see, the varnish is having issues and a full strip, restain, varnish is in order.  The machine itself has been recently used (based on it's new belt and nicely moving parts), so I had to gut it completely.  Instead I think I'll simply swap what I need and either donate or sell this beastie cheap once I check it all out.  Here's a better idea of the damage to the cabinet.

My other win is a Singer Stylist 533.  After taking it out of the case I see there's a part missing.  Still, not too bad for $8.  And it does have the removable table stashed inside the case - right where it belongs.  Wiring is in great shape, so now it's just time to clean it well and stitch up a small project.
