I just procured my very first sewing machine and I'm ready to hit the DIY trail.

A buddy of mine called up, said he'd buy the beer if I helped him take an old sewing machine to the dump. He didn't know what else to do with it and has to get rid of it.

It's his mothers old machine that she rarely used and he said it works perfectly. It's one of those big console things, where the machine raises and lowers into the console, with decent size extension wings on both sides.

What a win/win. Free beer and sewing machine.
