    Cool Royal ZigZag, but $225, seriously?

    That first one is a very good deal to me. Good thing I don't live closer.
    If I bring many more home I'll be sleeping under them outside. If I'm lucky I may have another treadle machine in need of restoration on it's way to me this weekend. A friend down in Portland has one he needs a new home for.
