An Orphan Rescued




Here are photos of the lovely little sewing machine I acquired from the auction house. I didn't bid on it, but the buyer who did orphaned it for a long enough time that the auctioneer said - "Take It!" So, the little freebie in the solid wood cabinet is mine. I need to lemon oil it, yet, but I did get it cleaned using wood cleaner. For the sewing machine, I just used baby wipes for now. Need's to be oiled before plugging it in. Even the wiring is quite good - something I look at closely now that I've had to re-wire a vintage machine. - another story altogether.


According to the serial number, It's a Singer 66.
