I am planning to include a note to tell him that "I" will pay to have it shipped back home to him when the time comes.
We will be shipping the machine out to him on Wednesday for those who are following this project.
Steve,
I once shipped an inexpensive Singer to Iraq and had the soldier leave it behind for others who may need it. It was left with the Chaplin with instructions to let anyone use or borrow it. In the long run, not only did it repair uniforms, it made crafts and gifts that got sent to the states during the holidays. I have no idea where it is today, but I do know it was a well used and loved machine for a couple of years.
