I got it all in an auction lot, so it was a very one of a kind situation. I'm trying to make a point to use some of what I've accumulated, hence the bags.

I'm not using the vintage machines yet, still putting them together. I'm using my Huskystar 224, it probably needs a good tuneup.

Uh oh, I'm in trouble now! Thanks for the tip!
