A customer at Turtle Mountain found out that I used to be a professional parachute rigger and decided to give me a present.

It'll need a little work, but it's still worth about $600.

Cool I use one of those in the slide shop at work. It sews the heavy covering on the slides like it was tissue paper.

I had a similiar model.It will run forever. I use a Consew now.Good score.

I have one of those. Now I know what it was used for.

I have an old and working singer pedal with leather belt wood drawers and fancy iron work. Never let me down even when the power is out. Mine is an home use machine. Yours looks heavy duty like you could remake your seat covers with it. Are you planning to use it for somthing special?

my old boat anchor was about the same size and weight as that...

!!KIDDING!!

i'm just jealous because i have no idea how to use it.... my dad was in the 82nd airborne. probably appreciate your skills more than I. LOL

Cool, you can hem your underwear.

I just noticed you can add a pic to a reply but if you edit a reply with no pic you can not add one. And I found if the reply has a pic in it when you do an edit it will let you change the pic.

I've been looking for a commercial single-needle so I can do upholstery work.

This machine is somewhat specialized, but might work with some table mods. I might sell it to get something better suited to my needs.

my mother has this hi-tech Brother single needle in the house...now to see if she would like to add yellow piping to my seats

To bad you are so so far away! I have a machine you could have that would be perfect to start you out on doing some upholstery. Its an oldie but a goodie.
