1929 Singer Model 66

For those of you not on Facebook, here's my newest project (because sure, I have "extra" time!).

Found at a local Salvation Army. The machine seems to work well (the wheel turns silky smooth, and the needle goes up and down), but I don't have a power cord for it or a pedal. Did these even HAVE pedals? I haven't done much research yet - I've only had the thing for a few days. And it's living at my friend's house so I can't look at it now.

She has a garage, and we're doing tandem woodworking projects. She's into "shabby chic" so quick and dirty is working well for her. Sadly, I'm more of a perfectionist. So far I sanded off the horrible cracked varnish and did some wood fill for the worst chips. Next: stain and re-varnish. I am considering ebony stain with a hint of gold trim.

As always, click on pics for a bigger view. Thoughts? Info?

Hey there! I've kind of forgotten about this blog. In case you were actually reading it, I apologize. I hang out on FL and Facebook more now. I don't play any of those games (Farmville, etc - UG!) and I promise not to update you on my breakfast choices. Come Friend me!

In other news, I've been hard at work with my clinic since it opened in my new location November 1st. 3806 SE Belmont St: I'm part of Earth Body Wellness. And mere blocks from a great set of food carts. :)
