Wow, inspiring stuff! What a beautiful old machine and so lovingly restored. It has already served 4 or 5 generations and who knows how many more to come. Thank you so much for your devotion to these wonderful machines and for sharing this with us!👍❤️
Saw one in a second hand shop recently. I'm not personally interested in a machine that old, the 20th century is more my thing. It'd been standing for a while, but last time I was there it was gone. The lid was laying there in two pieces still. Sad to see, made me feel like I should've taken it. But you have to choose your battles. Nice one!

Just been doing a little service on my machines. I love the decals on this one can't wait for you to fix an 1899 one with a sphinx on it.

Sir, what did you use for a final clean on the finish before you put on the clear coat? It is beautiful.
This one isn’t clear coat, I softened the old shellac with alcohol, then I used new shellac, wax polish and sewing machine oil.
