I have a third generation repair man I can go to in Mooresville. He stopped what he was doing and took the time to look at my Featherweight for me. I wanted him to see it before I used it (got it for my birthday last year). He went back into his work area and came out with a plug to put on the machine when the machine is in the case. Plug was vintage as my machine is. No charge. Small hometown business. And he said I had a nice looking machine too.
