I already had the Free on the right, but when Chris Quilts offered me another one I jumped on it. ( left) Above

I had hoped someday to get a rotoscillo drive with ball bearings (3rd and 4th pics) from the left machine, but didn't even check till I got it home.

I was delighted to see the ball bearings. I cleaned /reassembled the tension adjustment borrowed a slide plate and it stitches when hand turned now,

Wish I could show you a video.

Thanks again, Chris. She also gave me the 99 parts machine I used for the boss pics and a New Home.

We had a nice visit.

FWIW the Free on the right has Western Electric badging on it also

Leon,

You are most welcome for taking the 3 machines home. Delighted my children the most.

I'm glad we could visit. I had a wonderful time & glad I gave you you one of your "most wanteds".
