Your FW is cute and I'm glad you made such a good find!

Oh but you only have one of each so why even think of choosing? I say keep both and then no more. I am trying to decide whether or not to keep my Red Eye or not for I wanted to restore the stand to full originality and it should have a red eye in it but then I bought a beautiful Sphinx and I cant make up my mind. DH is no help for he just says do what you want.

There is a fire close to our house, next to a state park and we were told last night to evac. Friends were there to help hook up to camper and trailer for harley mc. Put my 3 FW in camper in case. Check out my pics of my sewing rm and machine collection, would hate to lose them but can't take it all. :(

I got my first FW at an estate sale in Andrews, TX now have four. I found one in WI at a garge sale (cheap) was my best buy. Keep looking. They are so small you should keep both.
