Thanks everyone! She is so pretty sitting there on my table. There's a lot of dirt in her nooks and crannies. I loved the bobbin winder, which wasn't too hard to do! She bounced up and down some when I first stitched with her, but did some cleaning and adjusting and that stopped. Tension needs some tweeking. I love the size of the 3/4 size machines. That chrome on the handwheel makes me smile, as does the grape leaf motif on the faceplate and back cover! I will post pictures when I get her cleaned up some. My mom's FW was from 1943 and all that trim is black. My 99k's faceplate it striated, so I wanted a fancy chrome faceplate.

Miriam, thanks for posting the links to the You Tube videos. They are a lifesaver when you don't have a manual. Muv, you are very thorough and it is great to know I can ask you if I am not clear on anything.
