    Super score!

    So today I was looking through Craigslist and saw a listing for a singer machine. The guy was asking $125 so we haggled back and forth we decided
    on $100 went to meet with the gentleman and check out the machine very clean and he had alot of attachments for it, the cabinet was dang near perfect. He asked me what I did for a living so I told him I was a tattoo artist.
    He then asked me if I would consider doing a flower about the size of a half dollar on his wife's ankle for the machine instead of the $100....My response Yes ...Yes sir I will and you are Awesome. And this is what I got....

    That's not only a sewing machine, it's also a work of art!

    Haha! Cool. I have one identical (though it needs to be cleaned up) in my basement that my wife's grandmother gave her a while back. Our family is pretty hardcore about family heirlooms, valuable or not, so we wouldn't sell it, but out of curiosity what is something like this worth?

    I may have to start using it to make some of my own gear.

    Awesome score! You can tell people you traded a flower for it. I've got one very similar and it is an awesome machine. Many of the attachments won't be very useful for making gear, but I did see a rolled hem foot. That definitely could come in handy.

    Very nice deal. I don't see a manual in the photo. Here's a link if you need it and the attachments are explained in it as well...http://www.ismacs.net/singer_sewing_...uals/15-91.pdf
