Default another weird one!

My rocketeer obsession has grown, I am now pointlessly oogling *other* Craigslists!

found this one . . . looks like the Terminator Buttonholer has a sibling!

the really cool thing about the 29 series is that it is a walking foot that has a revolving mechanism in the head which allows it to be turned in any direction while sewing. My first try I was able to write my name in stitching in 4 oz leather
