A lady came to the shop with an old Elna. She wanted me to put on a new foot control. We checked it over and decided it wasn't the foot control. I had one from another machine - it did the same thing her's did - ran then quit. So I asked if I could look inside the machine. I ran it with the top off - blue streaking out of the motor. Too bad - it's a nice machine. Those machines have the motor ways inside - lots of stuff has to come off...

Tomorrow I'm hoping I can have a clean up the shop day for a while.... I hate it when things get all cluttered up. Seems like it gets a point of no return awful fast. Must be the elves that live in the Cinderella machine's case.... Sneaky little buggers - some how they let machines in there, too and they never ever fix them.
