I live in Appleton, Wi. The machine is in Detroit. The owner won't ship, and I don't want to make such a long trip (8 1/2 hours with two children, 7 and 9 years old) to get it myself. I was hoping someone would buy the Detroit machine (which is an absolute steal) and personally bring it to me in Appleton, while on their way to visit, vacation, travel for business, or whatever else might bring them my way. When it arrives here, I would pay the $250 that the person spent to purchase the machine, and give the person my Featherweight for all their efforts. I know it's a long shot, but why not throw it out there!
