Anyway I would like to get a new bar for the hands free presser foot lift, and then just have a resource for anything else I might need like bobbins etc. :)
I would hold on to it... you new machine will have to go away periodically for maintenance :wink:
Sounds like I should keep this as my backup, suppose it will be nice to have as a machine for friends to use, I've been trying to recruit them for our own little quilting guild. :)

By all means! If you are going to buy a frame, or have a frame ... put the Juki on that puppy and leave him there! You will be happier with a piecing machine and a quilting machine - - just fantastic that you got such a good price on a great machine ...
don't get too hung up on brand name attachments (there are attachments that are general, based on your shank - - whether it is high or low)
not always, but usually, so look around.
And, even if you don't have a frame, having one machine set up for quilting and the other for piecing, life is very good <wave>
