Glenn, Welcome back.
Texas Jan and husband, Hang tough.
The Lady Kenmore surprised me, because I thought, I don't need another sewing machine, but it is solid as a rock, and freely turned by hand, the camstack was good (the top cover just pops off, so easy to check), and it just spoke to me. I had to clean it up and check it out, and the more I play the more I like. The biggest problem was the lint in the feed dog area, but I scooped it out, and oiled it up, and it was pretty neat. Lot of knobs that I am trying to work out, but so far, so good. After I bought this one, I got an email back from another sewing machine that I wanted that was for less money, but I will have to check back on it. My husband is very patient and a worse enabler than yall, if you can believe that, because he said maybe that other one will still be there. That would be awesome too, because it is a 201 in a cabinet, that I think I have to have.
