I sewed toys for my sisters, hemmed pants, and re-upholstered car seats with it. (Alas, no women to help with such things, apparently.)<BR/>It was made in the fifties, and built like a tank. I lost it in a fire, and can't buy anything new made without ticky-tacky Chinese plastic parts and such.<BR/><BR/>Good for you, e4e!Dr. Knowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035212475787264261noreply@blogger.com
