    It looks like a knockoff singer electric on top. Probably a K-Mart or Sears. I could be wrong as there are so many singer models out there. Not that those are bad per se, but parts aren’t always interchangeable with singer.

    I have the legs from one of those to tables attached to an old door to make a big table. I used a 1x8 to brace it underneath.

    If you look at thrift stores you can find sewing machine tables where the sewing machine folds in and it just looks like a normal table. There worth $10-$20 if it has the pedal. Don’t buy a sewing machine without the pedal because they cost as much as a good used sewing machine with one.










  • The issue is that some laws make complete sense, but you can have an activist judge or the SC declare it unconstitutional. Legislatures are elected and they can’t be expected to know how a law can be interpreted.

    Even something as simple as a noise ordinance could be considered a first amendment violation in certain cases.

    I live in Illinois, they passed an assault weapons ban last year. Of course the gun people claimed it was unconstitutional because of the 2nd amendment. It’s not but someone tried to make that argument and there’s a non-zero number of judges who would agree with them.
