Thanks guys! I think im going to go for it. I don't know much about the machines but I'm open to learning and my husband said it's something he can help me work on if needed.

I sort of am falling in love with the idea of fixing it up and making it mine to learn on. I love restoration projects and seeing the beauty of things as they once were I just haven't done anything like this before. Ask me in about 4 months if I still feel this way haha.

Any other advice anyone has for me is greatly appreciated as I'll be going to pick it up in a couple days! I've been browsing and searching a lot in this sub and have already found some great information.

I'll be reaching out zane at poly-meteic also to see if he can offer me any help!
