    Welcome and hoping to see some of your upcoming work!
    You used to be a blacksmith? Check out my avatar below my name. That's my Paint horse, Watson. He's got four white feet that are like iron and a blacksmith will appreciate that!

    Have you checked out the bicycle museum in Springfield? It's on my list.

    Vintage Sewing museum in Tulsa isn't too far from you..
    You could handcrank the 128 and take it out, too.

    You probably already have noticed that many old Singer motors can be run on AC or DC.

    Sorry about the big C. Such a life changer, even if you beat it.

    He has quite the bikes in there. I used to see him riding one of the big wheeled bikes around town and I heard he rode one across the US. The motor I added to my PFAFF is ac DC too. I would like to see the museum in Tulsa, I hear it's nice.

    Hi Watson, the way I got into blacksmith was shoeing horses. They always say stay away from white hooved horses, but I've found that to be true only part of the time, sounds like you have a good one. I went to farrier school in Macomb Ill. I love gaited mules.
