Shop kept the spring, said they did not know where it goes. Almost done for the day when the built in walking foot broke, the latest on a growing list. Shop is 45 minutes one way and I work all day Tues and Wed.
First thing I do if I'm planning on buying a new machine etc. I'd find out how qualified the local repairman is IF there IS a repairman. I got a real nut in a lqs. The shop is one of the best in the area but the repairman didn't know diddleysquat about repairs.
