REPAIR NEEDED

The old girl (my mum's Bernina 740 Favorit) had a small problem several weeks ago I dropped the peddle and after a short while it stopped working :-(  My son had a look at it and found that it had a serious crack which because it's very old Bakelite it was not repairable.   Soo....  off to our trusty sewing machine repairman and the prognosis was good, he was able to find me a replacement for only $25.... BARGAIN.

I was sternly told to look after it and don't drop it as these type of peddles although available in quite good condition are getting very old and brittle..  I am now very careful how I handle this one :-)
