Does anyone else hear Jeff Foxworthy telling this guy "If you've ever converted your grandmothers sewing machine into a jigsaw.... you might be a redneck"??

Love the spelling of "vertical".

what is it? is it literally a sewing machine converted to run a jigsaw? that's kinda like heresy, in my mind!

Looks like it works ok. Guess the guy didn't like sewing much. LOL.

Crazy is the word for it! But I also have to admire the person's ingenuity!

OSHA is not gonna like this.......

I've seen this SAME picture selling a machine months ago, either is did not sell or it's being moved along.

I have a folder of Treadle tools that I have found online that i want in my shop someday

Jigsaw - (With safety components)
Tablesaw
Lathe
"dremel" (actually a dentist drill that is foot powered)
Drill press
