Get it fixed up and use it so you can enjoy it. Even if you have to put it in another room to sew on it. I'll have to spend some time today going through the vintage machine thread/area to see how I should go about cleaning it and what products to use. I'm excited about it! |

Now I am going to have to wait for the manual to show up and see about what year it is....I will scan it for you and mail it to you when I get it, that way you can have a manual for it!! Billy |
That would be awesome, Billy. You can e-mail me the scan if you want. It's nice to know some history and the manufacturer of it. At least it's a name I recognize:>

Wow, never seen one like that. Cool.

WOW! Lucky You!!!

That is the prettiest machine I've ever seen! I have a Morse that I bought brand new in 1975 from a door to door salesman. It still runs smooth and I have never brought it in for service. I can clean it and oil it myself. Instructions for doing that came with the machine. Wait, I did bring it in one time because the stitches were not coming out right. The man at the shop took out the needle, turned it around, and it worked fine. I was young and not so smart at the time.

Good news...she's alive. Of course when I gave it some gas the belt started to disintegrate, but the motor, lights etc. work. I cleaned it up and 2 large rags are disgustingly dirty. I removed the belt and it's a waxy mess. Yuck.
