Hi oldhag, and I am sure that name doesn't really suit you!
What do you suggest one is to do with old machines that are not truly functional but have motors that do respond to electricity?? I would say "working somewhat" is the proper term. My husband can run a nuclear reactor, but forget about a little motor like this old singer (early 1960s).
I have not had luck w/ the big box fabric stores to fix my old singer, they just want to sell you their new machines. But now I am exploring the 'small' quilting stores in my area to see if they have a "handy man" in the basement (so to speak) who has the ability (and patience) to fix up these oldsters! It's my Mom's old machine and perhaps if it gets fixed, someone can get some use out of it. Feel free to respond to this is you have any ideas on this topic! From Kate in small town Illinois, USA. :)
