same thrift store, different machine...ELGIN with cams
[ATTACH=CONFIG]526859[/ATTACH]
So, this machine has sat for about a week. It's an ELGIN with a full compliment of cams. It looks similar to the DRESSMAKER I found and posted about previously. It's only 7.99.
WHAT DO I DO!?
Is it a worthwhile buy? Should I go ahead and have the Touch N Sew repaired or do it myself? (SINGER 630 TnS needs new gears, I have them and all but one cam and all attachments save for one or two.) Which is simply the better zig zag machine...aka...which is the better machine? I want to start some beginner garment construction and I want to zig and zag to my hearts content.

I'd get it. Having the cams with it is a big plus. $7.99 will only buy a 6 pack of decent beer these days. I would get that much entertainment out of it just getting it cleaned up and running.
