Just had to show this little Cutie off!!! I am not one for buying older machines, I just have no room! But this Beauty came to me FREE!!! With the Cabinet, too. It is a Morse 600, with instruction book dated 1956 and a price tag at that time for $199.95. It weighs about 45 lbs. I did have it checked out, the belt was dry rotted and the power cord had a slit in it. But works beautifully! I really fell in love with the little oil can, it is soooo cute!

Took it for a spin today, made 2 of the pictured Dresdans on the Morse and the other 2 on my Sapphire.

Love this turquoise color! It is in great condition! The cabinet still has the tag on it from Montgomery Wards.

Anyone know anything about this machine?

nice and I like the oil can too...........

Cute machine. What are you asking about? You have the manual? I have a Pink Morse, they're great machines.

I can remember sewing on a morse so many years ago... lovely machine

I never heard of Morse before, and how often do I need to oil? The manual is only 7 pages, very vague.

Morse is a well known manufacturer and they're known for well made machines. You should oil as much as any other vintage machine. I typically oil them after every 10-12 hrs. of use. Sometimes I forget and go longer. Basically, if in doubt and you can't remember when you last oiled, it's probably time.

Really nice. Congrats

Thanks, Candace, for the info. I know it purrs like a kitten when I sew on it. Will try out all the attachments tomorrow.

Congratulations. :-D :thumbup: That oil can is cute.
