Are there any pointers I need to know about a W&W machine and what would I look for regarding attachments?
what kind of price is it? can you buy both, sort them out later then sell one.... lol
Enabler. Yes I can buy both. I don't already have either of the machines and facing serious lack of space problem plus DH might not be sew happy with 2 new machines.
Guilty as charged... Enabler. Sounds sort of like a Batman type name for the bad guy.
surely DH can recognize quality machined work on a good power tool when he sees it??? wouldn't want to get it in the wrong hands now would he???
