Default Careful .... they bite

Miriam's sig line went; Don't let a sewing machine know you're in a hurry, or something like that. Well, I can add don't let your sewing machine know you're mad at it. They retaliate.

I've been working on my Sewmor 202 for a week or so and finally got it to sew with out the stitch length lever wiggle woggling and working it's way up. But it makes a clatter I'm now trying to diagnose.

So day before yesterday I wanted to check the timing and turned the machine bobbin end towards me then lifted the head back on it's hinges.

Well ...... then it happened. The machine saw it's chance, slid out of my left hand and bit down on my right thumb that was holding the case from rocking back. Not a nice thing to do

I thought it was broke, but it's just badly bruised. Swollen and stiff too.

This machine is officially on my crap list. I'm thinking of parting it out. I've got other machines that do work good that need a case and cord set.

Bite me will ya ....... you'll see
