The seat was not there, but he thinks it was cane. If he elects to go further, which I doubt, I will work with him. I removed the stitch length assy. and there was no rust, just as Rodney(Centralia)said, neglect the oil and guess what happens?? I had to press the metal pieces apart. After a thorough cleaning and tri-flow on all metal parts, she sews like new
. The machine shows sign of very little use and the damage to the knob shows that whoever tried to fix it decided to let it be and probably relegated it to the closet
