Can you take the pin out? Are you able to tilt the machine back to get to the pin from underneath?
Are you going to try to treadle this one? Say yes! You have to try treadling this pink baby at least once. Doesn't the Brother machine fit into a Singer cabinet? Looks like fun!
I would be able to
treadle this machine :shock: :shock: :shock: I think I may give that a try!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was able to get the hinge back in place but it is still broken. It weighs about 100 lbs so it's hard to do anything with it without someone helping.
