They're all different. I don't have more than one of any model. I haven't yet run us out of house and home...they all work and I enjoy deciding which one to use for different projects.
Same here. I don't have a duplicate of anything, even as a backup or for parts. To the best of my knowledge every machine I have is in working order or only needs cleaning/oiling to run except I need to rewire the plug on my vintage White. Since acquiring my treadles, however, I think I'm more interested in those than the vintage ones from the 60s and 70s with a handful of exceptions.
