I'm new here also....have read every single page I think in the threads...my head is spinning with info.
I have a great condition FW, no case....sews great, just has peeling paint on bottom edges..leaving it
alone for now....was given a 301 that I cleaned oiled myself and it runs beautifully. It just has a super
stinky case that I am trying to rid the smell. I just bought a 404 for $24.50 at a thrift store....and a friend
said she "has some machine in a round wooden case up high on a shelf, that she hasn't touched in years"
if I can get it down, it's mine....what model goes in the wooden coffin case?
you all are great with sharing the knowledge and love the enthusiasm for these oldies...I'm hooked,
to the annoyance of my husband....(grin)
