This machine was setting on this ladies patio and it had a free sign on it. She said that the tension was off and for me to take it if I wanted it.Well,I did and I oiled it and she sews like a dream!! It is a brother v780. Does anyone have one like it??

I used to I gave it to my sister. I think she still has it. It did sew nicely, but I got a new machine from my mom (that was like 17 years ago)

You did good! This morning I walked away from a "TRUNDLE SEWING MACHINE - $150" It looked like a Singer Treadle that had been converted to electric. Already spent my money on material!
