The girl that was selling it said that her boyfriend's mother had given it to her but she preferred a more modern machine. I gave her the money and packed it into my car with a big smile on my face :-D

I'm hoping that my little green 185 will also fit in that cabinet. It looks like the holes are set just right.
Cathy,
Thanks for posting your new 99 with a ruler along side to show just how small these machines are. Also, thanks for sharing the info about the man who makes the hand-cranks for the FW. Very clever and cool!
