Thread Injector Find

[1Poet]

I have been reading about everyone's thread injectors and lusting after the old Singer 301/401's. Well, I am in Oklahoma visiting during the holidays and my wife wanted to hem up a pair of my dad's pants. My mom said we could use hers, which had been stored for at least ten to fifteen years. I took it out of the case and it was a pristine 301A, with ALL the accessories! SCORE!!!! This thing has all metal gears and is emaculate! It sews like a.... like a sewing machine! This thing is fast, solid and a real beauty. I'm in love! Mom said I can have it since she is 85 and can no longer use it and I will, I can assure you! All kinds of new gear ideas are popping into my head. Ain't moms great!?

Good find!

That's a thread injector, not a sewing machine!

(Reminds me of Doc Watson, who said. "That's a horse's foot in the gravel, that's not a train!")

Mom's rock!

technically, this is what we call a 'gloat'
congratulations on continuing the family tradition; be sure to pass the knowledge along to the next generation as well!

Thanks, Mac! I stand corrected. It sews like a...thread injector! KerMegan, it will stay in the family! And you're right, gloat, gloat!

Worthless without pictures.
Pics or it didn't happen!

Congrats on your new thumper.
