Another blue 15 clone, Free Westinghouse
Just couldn't help it, at St Vincent de Paul trift store. Looked too nice to wait for the price to drop to $30 next Tue, or $20 the following Tue. Fortunately being vintage myself knocked it down to $32.

I should inspect the wiring better before plugging them in, motor runs fine, light works, but the motor wiring is shot. Gotta find more blue power cords to canibalize! I think needle bar height is outta whack a little too. Doesn't want to hook the loop. Took me a bit to realize needle flat is opposite of my Singer 15's.
I did pass a Red Eye 66 head by (for $15) and a nice Spartan 192k (for $50). funny that particular St Vinnies tags sewing stuff as crafts and doesn't lower the prices the next Tuesday. Otherwise I'd have even MORE machines.
