The machine for Hannah is a clone I found on CL - I'm going to make a posting on it as soon as Iris sends pictures - my camera totally died and I am bummed. Anyhow - watch for a tutorial. The clone was totally stuck and we got it turning a bit at a time - then we got the tension sorted out and she sews! Then Iris snuck her machines into the cases and into the car before we got them working. So we messed with the hand crank and a tension on another clone. We still have some fine tuning to do but it did assemble. I might need to quiz Glen some on that tension. It may be I need a couple more parts or what ever.
Miriam, please tell how you got the 15 unstuck. I have one that is not moving at all. DH and I haven't taken a look at it yet (too many projects!), but he wants to work on it soon. Thanks!
