    Further down in the ad he states that pics of the machine are coming. He also calls it an industrial machine so even if I were interested at first, I'd pass on it.

    Maybe the sewing machine is in the bed and breakfast - you get to use the industrial machine while you sit on that deck and make quilts very quickly.... ya sure

    It will be interesting to see if it is actually industrial - you know ebay sellers think that any heavy old machine is "industrial". I have some cams that I believe are for an Emdeko. They don't fit anything I have.

    I have cams that don't go to anything either - they might as well go on an Emdeko..........

    by any chance are they similar to the cams for the Dressmaker - I think those are the ones we need for the the turquoise and white "Miracle" as seen here - http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...ml#post7242945

    I saw one on my local craig's list for a treadle that didn't work because it was missing the motor and such. lol

    Very nice refurbishing - although the lid might be heavy:
