The shiny black hearse - chrome heavy nose
I have an old Raico machine that is shiny and black with a heavy chrome front end. It is gorgeous. But it reminds me of a hearse....

Chrome nose doesn't show up well when I do a picture - maybe someone knows how to make it shiny in the pictures - here it is blinding some times.

Do you think it looks like a hearse?
A couple years ago some of us decorated our machines up for halloween...
http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...n-t164335.html It was fun. I don't know if anybody else wants to decorate or not...

The Raico seems to be a very nicely made machine... and it sews very nice. It is just a straight stitch with chrome on the nose, slide plate, light switches, stitch length and feed dog drop, etc.

The light is under the chrome along with all the regular works. I think the light needs an LED - no air vent at all. The light switch is on the front. This, like a caddy is powerful. Morticia Addams would want the decals off...
