I love it when people just want a good home for a machine. Very lovely.

SteveH, I love how you show each and every part of a machine. So nice. The machine is so pretty. Lucky you, and us for showing us. We may never see another one.

Beautiful, just beautiful. The paint on those irons is amazing. Is a wheel missing on the base?

Okay, this time I think I read everything carefully; do you know the year that this was manufactured?

Steve,

I believe that that type of shuttle is called a 'hybrid'.

Very beautiful machine and extra nice to use as a handcrank as well! I love the accessory box! The goldwork on the irons is just the icing on the cake.
