Tommie, that is wonderful! Do you have a particular soldier you know to send the machine to directly - someone who sews?
Nancy
I will be keeping an eye out for that information, too! Sounds like we have some very practical soldiers who will, indeed, change the world with bullets AND brains! Good show!<wave>
Yes, a particular soldier. He is taking apart wooden pallets and making a table for it. He does upholstery work back home.
We are packing the machine to hopefully survive a 10 foot drop, should one occur while in route.
I have it ready to test sew as soon as I paw through my parts stash for the HC portion. Never saw so much compacted lint in a machine in all my put togethers. :roll:
