I have about 14 but 3 are toy machines. Recently purchased another FW --1949. Thread jammed then dh tried to help me take out the bobbin casing area and he broke the hook part . Not local repair people and spent time this morning looking for a phone #. Easy to get parts if I wait until I am in FL in Nov. but I had the FW set up in kitchen and worked on charity cancer quilt while waiting. Finished quilt on my best machine.
Yes, becomes a hobby in a hobby but I have to stop because of room as happens with others too.
