It is an industrial from about 1896. Couldnt find any more info. Found it in a barn up north. Very rusty, used wire wheel on most of it, machine and irons. Just cleaned and poly on the wood. I have the original wooden pitman, but is missing a small chunk of wood on one end, so not sure what i'll do with that. Color is raspberry. I just love the table. DH figured out how the leaf worked and we got it working like new.

Jewel weed usually grows near the poison ivy. At least it does here.

Mirriam - so sorry to hear that your poison ivy has gotten worse! It has hung on for a long time - is it bad enough to see a dr?

Gorgeous!!! Did you strip the cabinet or did you use something like Restore-a-Finish on it?

Forgot to mark the VSMS Pics page. Can someone give me the topic I'm looking for?

I'm feeling your pain, Bennet. I'm in Houston and it's VERY hot here, too. I've had to move my cleaning inside and have found isopropyl alcohol, 91%, is cleaning as effectively as kerosene. And it doesn't smell nearly as bad as the kerosene, IMHO. I like that it evaporates quickly and leaves no film or residue to be removed. Maybe it would keep you from going stir crazy? Jan

Miriam, I am so sorry you're having such a terrible time with the poison ivy. I've found a product called "Ivy Rid" that helped me. It's a clear lotion that dries up the ooze pretty quickly and stops the vicious itching cycle. I never had a problem with poison ivy, probably could have sat in it, then all of a sudden I am very susceptible to it. Hope this helps you.

Well, following Cathy's excellent directions I'm going to try again to post a picture of my pretty little Frister & Rossman hand crank.
Hope this works (fingers crossed)!
