HELPFUL HINTS

Restorations: there is a difference between restoration and reconditioning. I do not do restorations any more, and only reconditioning on machine heads, not cabinets. I still will do repairs on cabinets if i think i can do the job, but I have to see the unit.

What's my sewing machine worth?  There is no blue book for sewing machine values. Prices depend on many things such as: rarity, condition, functionality, age, and whether it is considered a collectors item.
