    OT I love Ebay at times

    I managed to get a sewing machine today well chuffed. Been looking for this one for years and years. Loads of them but very very rare to come up for sale. After all have not been made for 25 years. Got the bloke to stop the auction and buy it. Just getting it shipped from Southampton to Brisbane (mmm which cost more than it cost). Love ebay, when somthing like this happens on ebay
    Ebay Item

    To explain My late farther made these machines and they are all over the world. Have not been made for 25 years. But are still used on the Volvo Round the world challenge and the BT round the world challenge.
    The great thing about them was the motor would work at 12v, 24v, 240 v or 120V (the american voltage) They were rust proof and water proof. And can be used as a hand operated machine as well . Just incase you had no power at all.

    BTW they are over 25years old but still change hands at nearley $1000 each.
