I bought another clone yesterday. The lady had it on CL. It was priced right and I had time to go after it. She had moved to a condo and was getting rid of stuff. It was the very last thing she had in storage. She said she had a hard time bringing herself to part with it. She had hauled it all over the country over the years. She had gotten it to sew baby clothes when her daughter was born. I told her I planned to restore it and let someone learn to sew on it. She was thrilled. She said she thought it would have to be thrown away. She had no idea you could get a manual and parts for it or that anybody would want it. It looks like she barely used it. There is one place on the bobbin winder that needs touch up paint or something. The rest looks pretty good - nothing a good cleaning won't cure. So far it looks like baby clothes was all she ever did sew on it though. I'll shoot a pic tomorrow.
