Default Wheeler and Wilson 8&9

I had a stellar day today. Saw a Wheeler and Wilson number 9, had to have it. Then I was offered the 8 too. Complete with several bobbins, accessories, and glass foots...Doesn't get better than that! All that was missing was the Coffin cover on the 8.

Very nice! I have both of those in my collection because I wanted them too. I really like them both and those glass feet are just the coolest things ever.

Very nice! I've got an 8 and I can get to sew a few stitches, then it starts dropping stitches. I'm certain there is something wrong in the bobbin "slide" area. I just haven't had time to play with it.
