    I thought that I would share a few of the machines I have been working on recently. Most of them are not mine.

    Thank you Mike. I have to admit that I was a little disappointed in how the handwheel came out, but everything else came out well.
    That one had the Coffee grinder attachment. I have done a couple of other Pfaff 130's without it and I liked how they ran. The one with the coffee grinder had a tinny sound when it ran because of that attachment. Does anyone know if that is normal?

    My bad. The Pfaff that I posted was one without the Coffee Grinder attachment. This is the one with it before I cleaned it up. It is the part on the back where the light would go normally.

    I was completely perplexed until I looked this up. For everyone else, the coffee grinder attachment is embroidery-related and doesn't grind coffee
    If it were a Necchi I wouldn't have questioned it!

    My dad loves to fix and restore things, as do I, but he has more space for it. Soo... when I bought Miss Rosie last week, I delivered my six drawer to him for storage. I said to wait until work finished for the year and I'd come over and restore it, but he couldn't wait! Here she is after only one week.

    I'd already Muv'ed the machine head but the cabinet is all his work. He took everything apart, re-glued, re-attached, re-screwed and the only thing he couldn't get perfect was the veneer, so I'm buying a leaf this week. I do love a job well done. We're probably equally proud of each other. Now if only there were money in this business.

    What a lovely cabinet your Dad did a wonderful job. I love the lighter oak finish and I will use it for inspiration for DH when he gets to work on my cabinet!
