    Like the first one, I would expect the second foot pedal and motor to clean and tune up nicely. If there is sluggishness in the machine it will hault the speed too. When you give the hand wheel a good spin (with out the motor belt, and presser foot up) the machine should turn several stitches befor it stops.

    There is a crinkle finish 128 in the KC area this week. cabinets and some nice accessories. $100.

    I expect clean and lubed straight stitches to spin at least 3 revolutions when spun by the hand crank.

    The Sew Easy VS I just brought back to life will spin 5 revolutions.. Not bad for not turning more that 90 degrees a few hours earlier.

    Zig Zag machines don't spin nearly so well.

    I definitely overpaid. Sigh. I best simply enjoy this machine

    Didn't mean the cords weren't deadly. Enjoy it.
