I finished the first project with it.  I had a slumberjack cot with rotten fabric, so I bought some outdoor poly/canvas/duck material and made a new one.  #18 needle would easily go through three layers of the canvas double hem, plus jute webbing, plus poly edge band.  I'm a happy sewer.

Here's our $18 junk store find. The case locks on so you can carry it around.

It's not the newly trendy Featherweight, but the cast iron tabletop version. I've refinished the case but not the base yet. I was able to preserve the original decal on the case with careful sanding.

not in same class, but would it do heavier stuff than the 80s stuff I ended up with?

I made a plywood cabinet and drawers for it today.  I now have a mobile sewing station.

This is mine. I never use it, need to get some parts and a manual for it. I always forget that I have it just like the XJR behind it.

LoL man I'm getting tired of it. It needs some work and it needs to go. I'm going to the work to get it running right and do the brakes but it needs tires. I'm not buying tires lol
