I would love to get one just like it, but can't afford to right now. Maybe someday. Congrats on your find!
Sorry to hear how you lost out - similar to what happened in my family ... but I found my FW at a garage sale for $15 - paid $20 for my 301A at another garage sale and got my treadle for $65 at a flea market - keep your eyes open and when the time is right the right machine(s) will appear. Just don't forget to believe! Hugs
