Hi Lifeboat H? There is a?Husqvarna Optima 610 going spare in Clinton ON originally?from the UK and recently blew a capacitor, I got it working since the grease had seized most of the rotating?parts. I was on the second leg finishing a blind hem when it smoked. I was running on 220v using both phases on a "split socket"? :-/
My guess is you don't want a modern machine even though it?is a solid cast aluminium frame.
I bought my mother a?Brother SQ9130 she likes that better much easier for someone 84y regarding the speed control.
I hope to be visiting Canada from the UK in September.

Thank you for welcoming me!? I am new to vintage sewing machines.? The interest started with a love for Husqvarna sewing machines, and I went and bought a 6020 from 1967 or so, then a Class 12 from 1961.? Then a Singer 9W, which is why I came to this group.? I am in Toronto.
