My hubby came home with this the other day.
$7.99
I know! That's what I said!!
I had to snap some pics before he could even clean it up. I love rust and dust macro shots!
It's 114 years old. Cobwebs and all.
They just don't make 'em like they used to anymore.
It had been 'upgraded' with a little motor and a light for working long hours, well into the night.
Yep. Motor still works.
So's everything else on it.
Needs a bit of WD40 here and there.
I finally let him wipe some of the dust and dirt away so he could check things out.
It's such a novelty because the parts actually, well,...they come apart, so you can replace them with out having to throw the whole thing away, melt it down or recycle it.
Today's world seems mostly about
quantity vs. quality.
Faster and cheaper vs. tried and true.
Nope, they just don't make them like this anymore.
I think we're going to learn to sew on it.
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Timeless Quality!
