That is a great looking machine. My DH is green with envy. Though he admits he'd have no use, but he'd have grabbed it in a heart beat.

Which is fine with me as long as he doesn't expect me to figure out where it goes. I've already got two industrial machines of his that I need to put in my Machine Shed. They are both older Singers, so they fit in well.

What a deal ! Have a question for anyone in the Kenmore interest. A dear friend has a problem with her Electronic Kenmore and wonders if anyone else had the problem . It will sew then stop --I think is cools down then sews again.
She ordered a new foot pedal and I am hoping that was the problem. So if you have any leads where we can go to look for help please let me know. I had told her there was a Kenmore collector on here so I would try to find him.

Hmm. Hard to say what might be the problem. Is it a vintage mechanical machine or a more modern, computerized Kenmore? Does the machine slow down prior to stopping or does it suddenly stop sewing? Has your friend done any troubleshooting such as cleaning out the bobbin area, the feed dogs, has she checked the wiring, checked to see if the belt is slipping...?

Wow! That is one beefy machine! I would be totally intimidated by that thing, about half of it looks totally mysterious to me, I wouldn't know where to start! It sure does look cool though, I dig the oil gauge.

What an amazing, awesome looking machine! Now, I'm with Rodney in terms of not knowing about machines like this, but I can still admire it.

Very, very cool - congratulations!
