Thank you!

I'm going to fix it up. Took a peek inside, it doesn't look too bad, seems internally complete.

I won't use it for morning coffee. I imagine it as more of a dinner party thing, turn it on when folks arrive to be ready when it's time for espresso.

I'm actually thinking it could live in my dining room, in an alcove dedicated to drinks and after-dinner coffee. I can bring a water line and 240v there. If it polishes up nicely, that is.
