Bobbie, this is just my opinion, but I would either leave it as is or do a complete repaint. I've never seen a machine painted in small patches or areas that doesn't look worse than leaving it...

Nancy, I don't know, but by the looks of it I'd wager China. It's a piece of junk. Oddly, there's a washer kind of thing in it that none of my other vintage bobbin cases have. Let me know if yours...

I know. That's what I'm saying. The knobs don't necessarily have to be removed as the liquid wrench would get into the crevice and release any stuck parts. I have learned to not touch any of the...

Well, it sews sooo smoothly. Vintage Pfaffs really are on a premier level. I'm so used to the typical black, vintage Singers and Pfaffs are just a level above. I did try some FMQing with it and...
