I've got the machine itself back together and sewing. There is no mechanical damage to the machine, just the surface.
Next I get started on the motor and wiring.
As far as the mice go, my wife is afraid they might be in the Pathfinder. We didnt' find the nest till we stopped for a bite to eat on the way back.
I told her if there is one in there and it runs up my pant leg ..... things ARE going to get exciting.
