Expletives.

After finally getting through a hump of delays, one of my sewing machines has died. It's one that I use for a critical part of sewing the bike shoe uppers, and it happened promptly after informing a customer that I would be very shortly moving from making the uppers to lasting.

The machine's an antique and made for a European market, so fixing it will be far more expensive that replacing it. I'm looking to either make use of a willing friends machine or find a way to acquire a replacement. Until that is solved, I'm working on other parts of the shoes.
