You have a treasure!!! I had a 830 that I purchased in1972 or 1973. I used it for many years and loved the machine. I remember paying $500 for it and all the attachments. I gave it to my sister at some point because I wanted her to give me back my Singer 401A. After she passed away I received it back. I sold it a couple of years ago to a friend and I have always been sorry! It is a marvelous machine and a real work horse. I have a BERNINA 1130 and B530. But, enjoy your 830 Record.
