It's a needlefeed walking foot with no feed dog,real similar to a 31-15 only better feeding.most parts are still available.

I just got a 28 and will also like to learn as much as I can about it, Specially the mechanical up keep and "Tricks" to keep it in tip top shape

thanks

I saw that machine listing for all of 5 minutes yesterday on CL since it was priced to sell.  It looked like a nice machine good score!

Yeah the price was unenviable and the seller end up been super nice, we spend like three hours taking about a million different things..

 I really appreciate "Minnesota Nice" , trust me coming from San Francisco it makes a massive difference..

He mention the machine was "Dirty" but it was absolutely pristine everywhere I look.. Hey maybe you know of a good shop to get consumables like Bobbins and riddles,  the only things missing are the "Mast for the cones" and the little "Feet" (well claws/Hinges) machine to the table..

Send me some pictures of what your missing, I may have them.  There is a local place off University Ave called Service First Sewing, they would also be able to order parts and have bobbins and needles.
