Thank you, George!phonogfp wrote:I have seen both these machines, and they're solid. I think the B 19 could be easily cleaned up with a little denatured alcohol or mineral spirits. It looks like someone brushed on some stain to "improve" it.
The C 19 could be a real looker in its golden oak cabinet. If you have even basic woodworking/refinishing skills, this cabinet is readily restorable.
If anyone is interested in these machines, I may be able to bring one or both to the Wayne show in October for no charge.

You're right about the B 19; it doesn't really look half bad the way it is, either. The camera's flash seems to accentuate defects pretty profoundly sometimes.
Best,
