I don't know how to copy and paste in this format, but as for having a lot of machines, I do, but credit garage sales and people deciding to throw away their machines because they can't make them work, and because I sew, whenever someone decides a machine isn't their bag, they ask me, and I cannot say no! such a weakling! LOL It works out nicely because I can move from one machine to the next if one breaks down ... of course, the mechanic is alway happy to see me coming through with four machines at a time for repair ...
