It applies no matter what machine you have or how old it is, and while sewing machine repair guys would have you believe that it's brain surgery, it's not all that tough to accomplish...good instructions and a little patience will get you through setting the timing on your machine. :)

It's really cool to actually see what is happening when we sew.

Take a look at this, it must have been buried somewhere.

I called another guy and he said since it's in the cabinet he wouldn't even worry about the wiring that it should be safe cuz the wire isn't out in the open???? Should I be concerned? I thought they would just re-wire it so I could be done with it...
Off to post pics in the photo thread...this machine sews beautifully!! :)
