[QUOTE=Prism99;579348]That is a *really* nice machine and cabinet.
I agree. The Machine is in very fine shape. The cabinet is VERY useful - you will be grateful for all those drawers. The table seems to need some finish restoration - this is quite easy and very satisfying if you get the right stuff to use.
I have just overhauled a 401A here and will next overhaul the second one I have. They sew strong and steady, and with the built-in stitch patterns alone will do most of what any of us needs. With the accessory cams (5 came with the machine originally) you will be able to do many more stitches. (Do look for the needle plate with the oval needle hole, needed for any zig-zag.)
Oiling (oil) and lubricating (grease) this machine is a bit more complicated than a Featherweight or 1940's 99, but is not beyond your ability.
Happy sewing. Don't pass it up even at the asking price.
