At least it says Viking on it, so it is a manly beast.
It is a Husqvarna. They use the same 2-cycle motors as their chainsaws. Lots of power, but kind of loud and smokey.
I did the seat cover for my olds - managed to do it without my wife killing me. Next time I'm ready with a machine I grabbed from the curb in a sewing cabinet. Don't know what it is, but if I destroy it, I'm out nothing.
