    Ok ... these are without a doubt the most beautiful treadle irons I've ever seen (or could be once refinished). I knew it was going to be out of my price range ... but it hadn't even met reserve with a price of $4350.00. Holy cow.

    Agree ... the machine is nice but requires more work than these inexperienced hands can handle. The irons I can work with ... sand blasters are easy and fun.

    Ok, if you ever get one like that, I'd offer to assist with the head portion.... just for the privilege of playing with it!
