An "Addition" to the "Family"

Paul here. In the past I’ve been making our armguards using this lovely old machine.

It’s been in Annette’s family since 1907. I was able to return it to full functionality a few years ago. It been great because being an old treadle machine, it has proven itself to be able to even sew leather. Nonetheless it has always been slow and cranky.

            Well, last Sunday we bit the bullet and went out and bought a new heavy duty Tuff Sew commercial sewing machine. After much research we drove down to Tom’s Vac and Sew in Vallejo California and bought this bad boy brand new. We had him fitted with a heavy flywheel to replace the hand wheel, and boy he sure gets the job done now. We call him “Big Wheel.”

And here he is in his new home!

We’re looking forward to putting Big Wheel to work with us.

    Testimony: "My Dad’s Lost Bitcoin Was Recovered After 12 Years – Thanks to CLOUDSTRIKE "

    Earlier this year, we came across an old notebook with a partial 9-word seed phrase and a reference to a “Bitcoin wallet – Electrum.” We also found a non-working laptop from around 2013.
    He had once mentioned buying Bitcoin back then, but we assumed it was a passing interest. Clearly, it wasn’t.
    The problem? The laptop was unreadable, and the seed phrase was incomplete.
    After failed DIY attempts, we reached to a company specializing in digital asset recovery and seed phrase reconstruction( CLOUDSTRIKE CYBERSECURITY COMPANY ) . From the beginning, they were professional, transparent, and highly responsive.
    Their team recovered and decrypted data from the damaged laptop, analyzed old wallet files and metadata and also used proprietary tools to reconstruct the missing seed words
    Within three weeks, they successfully recovered the wallet:
    17 BTC—worth over $1,600,000 at the time.
    Thanks to CLOUDSTRIKE , we recovered not just digital assets—but a part of my father’s legacy. The funds helped us pay off our family home, invest in the future, and support a cause he cared about.
    If you’re locked out of a wallet or missing a seed phrase, I highly recommend CLOUDSTRIKE CYBERSECURITY COMPANY and they can be contact through their E-mall address which is ( Cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com)
    WhatsApp:+1(260)408-3923
    Their expertise is rare—and real.

    “In the crypto world, this is great news I want to share. Last year, I fell victim to a scam disguised as a safe investment option. I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 10yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure — until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended the Capital Crypto Recover Service. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication enabled me to recover my lost Bitcoin funds back — more than €560.000 DEM to my BTC wallet. What once felt impossible became a reality thanks to their support. If you have lost Bitcoin through scams, hacking, failed withdrawals, or similar challenges, don’t lose hope.
