Woohoo! Congrats! You should take a pic of your two fine machines together. What a contrast, but both fabulous. Folks do learn to service FWs themselves. I'd never try anything electrical, but I'll try the clean, oil, check stuff on mine when it's time using the Dave McCallum book and DVD. Two of mine came newly serviced and the 3rd sure acts fine, so I haven't had to go there yet. You sure have good sewing machine "karma", all the best seem to end up at your place for awhile at least. :)
