    Congrats! Great find! I agree with Mitch's Mom-those seeking FWs should buy a pack of bobbins for it or some such as bait. I bought my first FW from Craigslist, drove a ways away. Took it straight to the regional Singer repair center to buy her bobbins, and my 2nd FW was right there waiting for me-1/4 mile from my house! They are social!

    I have one myself, was in the attic when I moved in here. I saved this web site that was posted here to find the birthdate.
