    Yeah, they do tend to do that, don't they?

    You are all so funny! I love all the ideas and I would definitely say yes to the machine.

    My Doctor daughter came home after her divorce with a POD, four teenagers, (two of them I had sent to her two years before) and two BAD dogs.

    Yup, I'll show you when it arrives. We probably won't pick it up for a few days yet, but when I have it set up, I'll be sure to post a picture. I'm giddy as all get out! Even bought some new material for it today (shhhhhhhhh, don't tell my husband ... he doesn't know!) hahaha

    This is why I built a studio in my backyard and also why I am having to add on to it now.

    I can feel your pain, I just bought out a lady whose great grandfather was a sewing machine dealer and serviced machines and went out of business/retired before WW2 .

    How would you like to be bringing home around 30 or so machines (all treadled) and tons of parts and manuals.

    I am hoping I can fit it all in a 40' enclosed trailer and a truck. :roll:
