Oh, and if I wanted to travel, I could pick up this 201. Oops, I mean the "15k88." http://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/for/2784563956.html. Plus it has one of those rare and expensive button holers.

But, if you're looking for something portable, have I got a deal for you! http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/atq/2780368780.html.

Umm...I just don't see how you could convert a sewing machine into a pottery wheel? http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/art/2779149122.html.

I think some of these sellers are out of touch with reality.

Easy-peasy!! You just turn the machine on end and build your pottery on the handwheel as it turns! ~snicker~ I love the pricing... $429.25...does that include tax?

Gee, maybe I could convert my pottery wheel into a sewing machine...
And the person that list the FW as a 15-88 and just had it serviced? Something not right there - wouldn't the shop correct the person about what they had? So either - wasn't taken to a shop or don't take your machine to that shop!
