Well yes it does take up alot of space - But early Americana after the civil war fascinates me , it was a big time for technology and the growth of the US - I just love stuff thats human powered , even the old sewing machines are cool -- I know it sounds strange but watching someone run one of these Foot powered scroll saws etc is wild , pre electric stuff is definitely a different hobby . thanks for asking !
