Default Is This Machine Made Out of Cast Iron???
I found this sewing machine in my Great Aunts basement. It says Kenmore. It's model # is 117-959 and serial # is 426133.

It is so heavy and I don't have a clue about it. It looks rusty but it is covered with dust also not too rusty at all.

Was this used in factories or was it for personal use?

What in the world is the knob on the end for. Tried turning it and no luck.

Is it worth salvaging?

Any information, personal opinions, comments I will appreciate greatly! Thanks so very much!
