Default She wanted a cookie, we got a 301

Gf and I were in Wichita on the way to a wedding. She wanted a cookie so we looked up a fancy treats store. Got near the location and there was not cookie shop. But there was a flea market

We went inside and found a 301 in a case. Bobbin case was there. But the arm on the bobbin case wasn't secured. Huge thread knot. I instantly knew why that machine left the home.

2 screws later a feed dog plate was lifted and arm re-set. Sews now, still needs more lube. it was very
dry.[ATTACH=CONFIG]601575[/ATTACH]

Yes, she got a cookie later and cake at the wedding.

A bit more expensive than a few cookies. Worth it though. Thanks to all.
