Today's machine was an Elna Zig Zag. I think it's the predecessor to an SU. I don't think the thing has -ever- been cleaned.

I'm doing it as a favor, she wants to give it to her granddaughter for christmas. I'm starting to wonder if she likes her granddaughter. I'm now 4 hours into it. The ZZ finally does. The needle position selector is no longer a 2 hander to move, but its not smooth, and I have a significant tension issue still because currently this machine is a great ruffler, besides the odd skipped stitch. I do believe it will be a tomorrow's machine too, and possibly Wednesday's machine. *sigh* I sure hope I can get it off my bench before Christmas.
