Look What I Found this Past Weekend !!
i have been looking for a good deal on a Singer FW and luckily found one at CL. She is a new addition to my 'friends'. i have a singer 16-188 industrial sewing machine, a singer 201-2 (potted motor), and a singer 99 (aluminum body). she's having a minor make over (oiling and cleaning). there was an estate sale here in the East Bay that i missed - and they were selling a singer FW. to think that it was only about 10 miles from my place. i tried emailing them to check if they still have it but have not heard anything. would be nice to have 2 FWs. now all i am looking for is a FW 222 which is so expensive and hard to come by. sorry for the post as i am a newbie here. thanks again.

I'm not sure need has anything to do with it. I didn't understand the FW mania, but was sewing on one last Fall and it truly did make a pretty straight stitch. I have 3 white and 2 black and plan to spend New Years Day making them pretty. I'll keep one of each. At least they take up less room than the treadles.
