Thanks JoeJr and Janey! Good to know the hardware store will have likely have something comparable! I'm writing a list of 'bits and bobs' I need to purchase. I also realized I forgot to pick up a replacement 'tire' for the bobbin winder...Doh! Another stop to the local sew & vac shop, darn. (It's also an amazing store for all things quilting!)
My feline supervisors have been *very* helpful, in a purely theoretical way.
