I found this little treasure at the flea market this morning. The guy couldn't speak any English and I don't think he knew how to use a sewing machine anyway. I brought it home, cleaned it up and started taking it apart. It basically works except that the thread keeps falling off of its sideways holder and the part that keeps the bobbin in place is missing too. I overlooked those things on the sidewalk. One more catch, the motor works but fails to make the needle go up and down. I can turn the knob by hand though and then it acts like it would sew something. Oh well, maybe I'll get it figured out yet. Moral of the story, probably shouldn't buy something you can't test or can't discuss with the seller.
