    Sunbeam Mixer

    @LondOfHoney I agree 100%. I would kill for my mothers KitchenAid. It actually was supposed to be mine when she passes, but my sister talked her into giving it to her instead. My mother got her KitchenAid because she used to do a cake business and needed the strong long lasting machine. But the...

    Sunbeam Mixer

    Decided to restore it to it's former beauty. Sanded it down to bare metal, primed and painted it, 3-4 coats. Found the logos online and some decal paper to print them on. Will have a new cord put on it next week and she will be good as new.

    The logo and "mixmaster" feel like they are painted on or decal. I was going to see if I could have a decal made *IF* I restore it. But I am starting to feel the same as you. just clean it up and call it done. leave the "well used" feel to it. As for you getting one. I searched today on ebay...

    from CNN's front page: "Vintage Health Advice ~ 1915"

    The human body requires meat. Not pill supplements or any other substitute. Animals were put on this earth to provide us (and other animals) with food.

    Nothing wrong with eating Bacon. In moderation. That's the problem with most people toady. They think they have to eat 3 plates of food to get full at each meal, or they have to have 4 hamburger patties and 3 slices of cheese with 6 strips of bacon and a gallon of mayo a super large order of...

    How often do you wear a hat?

    My vote for "Just about every day" actually is for an option that's not there. "Every day no matter what."

    School Bully Targeting Trilby

    I'm sorry you fail to see that the REAL world requires one to be able to stand up for them self. I was raised by a psychologist. I have also studied the field myself. There are countless studies on this very matter. When a child goes to an adult to get help resolving a situation, the adult...

    School Bully Targeting Trilby

    No, but the SELF DEFENSE class meets every Friday night. I think that's where your misunderstanding. no one is saying the boy should just go around beating the crap out of bullies for no reason. Once again. Go to the teachers, the parents, ect. THEN if nothing is done. Defend yourself...

    School Bully Targeting Trilby

    I don't know anyone that has said to be violent as a first result. I know I have said this should be after the child has gone to the teachers and parents ect. That's why you have to TEACH them self defense. With proper teaching. he could have taken the 2x4 away and whooped the kids butt...
