I probably will be able to recover the board that got burnt. Funny thing. This iron I always left plugged in and there was a little blue light to tell you it was turned off. Daughter was ALWAYS screaming at me to not leave it plugged in. When this happened this morning...I actually was using it..but the thought flashed a memory. Many of you may remember I lost my Dog "Puppy" and my 2 ten yr old kitties. I cry still for them. But the horror of it today was I now have a 2 yr old fur baby who is the absolute sweetest thing. What if the house caught fire again...? I would have to run out into traffic.
Lucky for me, though, I had a spare iron in the closet. Whew! Can still sew today.
I, too, always never leave anything else plugged in. Same as you-all...never leave coffee pot ....toaster..plugged in. Why I did this iron...who knows. Just glad I was home when this happened. Could not handle losing another puppy.
