Bernia 117l mounted into sewing table.

Took me a little longer that I anticipated but machine is in new table. Table was a street find.
Funny though I think I am going to put this back to treadle. The motor is noisier than I thought it would be and it is not a great sound. Does an amazing job but has a real electronic sound. Distracts from the brute force of the 117 punching away.
As promised motor stops immediately and it goes like a rocket. Instructions are in Chinese. Have to get Chinese friend come over and show me how to slow it down.
I will leave on this table and just put a treadle underneath.
I mounted the motor on top so that I could easily convert to treadle/ leave the motor there if I wanted to use it.
Have added a foot pedal and chain for the presser foot lifter. Works a treat and I got used to it very quickly. Love this!
Good exercise had to do it.

The raw ingredients.
