Members DoubleC Posted May 2, 2012 Members Report Posted May 2, 2012 I just sold my last Singer Sewing Machine I rehabbed. The guy told me this then sent a picture to me. Actually, you might appreciate this then: I'm the head of living history aboard the USS OLYMPIA, Admiral Dewey's flagship, the oldest steel warship in the world, and a museum here in Philadelphia. If I purchase this machine I'm planning on putting the hand crank back on, and using the machine on the ship to mend our 1898-period Navy uniforms in view of the public. So if you're wondering if this will go to a good home, it will be used as the sailors used them 120 years ago, aboard the only remaining vessel from the time period.

Members Sylvia Posted May 3, 2012 Members Report Posted May 3, 2012 Very cool, Cheryl. Quote A teacher pointed at me with a ruler and said "At the end of this ruler is an idiot." I got detention when I asked "Which end?"
