I haven't cleaned it yet but oiled the very dry parts.
I couldn't wait so I got a belt, put it on, and it Sews!
I'm so addicted that I can't even think of making supper. (like that's something new) LOL

That is so neat and it looks in great shape on your avatar! Do you know anything about the "Fabric" label? Thanks for sharing.[/quote]

No, not a clue, but the first time I mentioned it on the site, People told me how great the 15's are, I just bought it cause I thought it was great.

The picture on my Avatar is my 99 in cabinet that I got for $2.00 at an auction. Love that machine.
