And honestly, for $150 or whatever they're charging, you can find a FW. I bought one from Goodwill's online site for $101 because it "didn't work." It had a thread jam and was working within about three minutes. I paid $30 to have the foot pedal rewired (exposed wires) and it hums right along. If you really want a Featherweight, keep looking (I've bought all of mine from eBay, and sold a couple of them locally on Craigslist) and eventually one will pop up at a reasonable price. Good luck!
