Thanks for the info Mike-- The pics didn't come through-- perhaps send them direct? [email protected]
I don't anticipate trying to make up a machine-- My goal would be to get my original case pieces useable as a half repro/ half original case and then decide which looks best with my machine--the full repro I currently have, or the hybrid. Dave Teti did my top works several years ago- Ken Danckaert did the nickle and fixed the on-off switch. I still need to get the motor working, but it is complete-just needs some tinkering, I guess. It's been a 10 year labor of love. I just retired from teaching, so may have a little more time to finish some long-neglected projects. Please see if the pics will send direct, and I'll send pics of my case pieces.

It would certainly be possible to have the cabinet parts made. As I use a quality maker to do this work, I can't be absolutely sure of what it would cost, but as the drawers are the more difficult part, I would estimate around $750 to $1000. Photo of one of my cabinets is also attached. If you are thinking of making up a machine from my parts, I would do the cabinet at cost. Alternatively, I would be interested in obtaining the remains of the cabinet you have if you prefer to let it go.
