Description:
Nasty Goodwill find, don't know what kind of dust it was covered in but while I was cleaning it I had to take breaks because I kept on breaking out in a rash from it. But the end result is worth it as I pulled a machine back from the edge and now it's quite lovely.

I'm a high school English teacher. Whenever I have to teach my students how to format a paper, I unleash a flock of Charger 11's at them! (they love it). I am most interested in the Brother brand, but I dabble in any and all machines.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Tower Commander on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Tower Serial Number page and the Tower Commander By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
