I also love my vintage machines and that it one of the reasons. So easy to maintain and fix. I gave my black FW a spa day last Sunday and she's purring right along. I need to get the white FW out this weekend and give it a cleaning and oiling and replace the belt. It sews fine with the belt that is on there now, but it's ugly orange and has started to squeak when I sew which I find really annoying. Almost as bad as when my FMQ foot on the Juki started squeaking. Fingernails on chalkboard.
