Well, my President may be out of action for a while but it gives me the excuse to bring out the San Marco 69 for the new main driver! It's my first 220V machine getting used on a timer and am excited to see how it goes for a while!

Beautiful work Ryan.

What 220vac timer are you using? I'd like to find a Wifi plug-in 240vac 20amp timer just like my 120vac 15amp plug-in Wemo.

An Intermatic HB-114. It's the same style as my 120V HB-113 but for 240V (and can accept NEMA 6-15 and NEMA 6-20 plugs).

Are the shots on that machine similar to your other historic commercial levers? Some people prize the La San Marco group, but I don't know if that's warranted.

Our vintage but we'll maintained Elektra Mcal from the 90s. While in Venice, we commissioned an artist to create a classic Renaissance design Venetian Majolica (glazed clay pottery).Some damage occurred while I was descaling few years ago. Was originally 220v and converted to 110v. The original wood handles have also deteriorated over time and replaced with a spalted tamarind wood.

Beautiful pottery wrap and restoration of the Elektra. The Mercurio is an elegant beauty as well. Really like where the water and steam wands sit. The timelessly functional sculptural beauty of levers continues to impress.

What a beautiful job your Venetian craftsman did for you!
