Hmmmmmm.....................I know machines are priced high around here, but I don't see a pedal or electric plug. What am I missing?

Judy,

Looks like most of the paint has peeled off of the front of the bed. Probably due to moisture and aluminum rot. I'd not call that "great condition".

Is that duct tape? It's out in the boonies too.

Absolutely everything about this machine screams "Singer" - the pedal, the tensioner, the look, placement of the controls, everything.,.. but it's a "Finesse"?

I have a suspicion it might have been the word "industrial" that did it. New industrial machines sell for thousands, so perhaps the buyer thought they were getting a bargain in a slightly older model??
