In good shape but when I press the foot petal nothing happens. Is there an on/off switch? The cord does look frayed at the plug??? Any help you can give would be awesome...ThanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-87730385813575279102012-10-24T21:55:15.158-05:002012-10-24T21:55:15.158-05:00How meat to have different machines to do differen...How meat to have different machines to do different things on.

I think it is wonderful that you have so many and that you have the courage to work on them.

I'll have to see if I have the single hole needle plate and give that a try. I am embarrassed to count my machines too. I use some of them but not all. I should figure out some sort of rotation.JustPamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045804511378274932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-65865036870755990152012-10-24T15:30:09.513-05:002012-10-24T15:30:09.513-05:00I think that being easily entertained is a great--...I think that being easily entertained is a great--and unsung--virtue.

I found it at the Salvation Army for 10.00. Hubbie did some adjustments and it works for the daughter. Daughter is up at college and is very charmed with the 401 because it turns heads.scrappy101https://www.blogger.com/profile/13373385186356083406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-39799812084143596202012-10-24T09:23:50.714-05:002012-10-24T09:23:50.714-05:00Sometimes a new needle stops the skipped stitch to...Sometimes a new needle stops the skipped stitch too. I have a sweet 401 too...but, then, I might have close to as many machines as you do. I don't count either and I give them away, get more added back and keep watch at garage sales and such. I love to get treasures usable.<br /><br />Lucy~qltmom9https://www.blogger.com/profile/00891119764581754368noreply@blogger.com
