Viking Husqvarna Class 18 Single stitch made in Sweden: )

Image
Came home with this 1950s Husqvarna/Viking Class 18 basic straight stitch machine on New Years Day 2023. (Also collected a nice Singer 431G) Thanks Neil! Complete, but missing its controller/foot pedal. Took a chance, like Abba did; ) I had a Sew-Tric motor/controller hidden away & it fits!!! Serendipity. It stitches as well. See above. Needs a good service & clean, but I know it will work 100% when I've finished with it: ) Motor fixing is not quite in line here. Will be soon.   This is my first Husqvarna, so it is interesting anyway. Looks to be in good order & just needs adjustments. It's been stored for many years. A good New Year project for me: ) This machine is now donated to Tools For Self Reliance . It can provide an income for a family in certain countries. How cool is that?
