old "new" sewing machine

[Chipperi]

Told a buddy at work I was tinkering with the idea of getting into leatherwork/holstermaking. But the sewing machines are wicked expensive. His reply was (strong TN accent) "aww well I have a big ass upholstery machine in the garagecovered with dust I got it free when we cleaned out the church basement its a zuki or somethin I pluged it in a tried it once it still works." My reply was " see if you can get a look at the model name and number it sounds like a Juki, If I can use it maybe I can make ya a deal or trade for it."

So hopefully I will be getting a good machine for near nothing.
