Default I Am My Brother's Keeper

I found this in my father's basement.
I didn't think to have it "properly restored."
I just had it cleaned and repaired.
The case was totally rotted. No hope of repair.
I have no idea what the model or year is.

It sews a nifty straight stitch. At top speed, it's a ripsnorter.
there's a dial on top to set the foot pressure for several different types of fabric.

I don't know how often I'll use it.
For one thing, it weighs a ton!
it's much too heavy for the new, plastic case.
i'll have to figure out a way to reinforce that so the machine sits level.

For another, it still stinks to high heaven.
Gotta get some odor eaters for it. LOL
