My dad found this sewing machine in an op shop several years ago. I’ve finally had it serviced and decided to keep it rather than sell it for a profit. It’s perfect.
SKS ready for a rehab
Image by Velo abzug
This is Peter’s SKS which I will rehabilitate while tanking-up on his wonderful Jungfraubrau Weisses (wheat beer) that he brews in Schwanden Switzerland. Note the placard from back in the days when he purchased two-hundred armeerads which unemployed people helped to repair for tourist to ride around Brienzersee / Lake Brienz. When Peter left this group ten years ago, this SKS was gifted to him, hence the colored burlap bows. I offered to bring this ride back to life and was pleasantly rewarded with all of the brew I could tank up on. Its easy to make friends in Switzerland I find, because they have such a fine attitude

The signage will soon be changed to the Brewery’s logo and this waffenrad will become a semi-static display piece within this fine establishment.
