    Well, I have a threadle, 2 FW's, a Singer 503 Stant O Matic, an old Viking, Singer, Kenmore (the one I always use) and a serger (not all working). Now, I know that's not many compared to some, BUT....I think we might all need re-hab. LOL

    I had to count mine the other day. Seems to be a funny thing with my friends - "how many sewing machines do you have now?" they are always asking. I lost track for a while so I've been saying "oh, about 20 of them." I actually only have 18 though. Guess I better hurry up and get 2 more so my count is right.

    Sorry, no manual for the Sewmor 770, I wish!. The wiring is bad so its just a real purdy dust/quilt holder in my sewing room. . Just looking at my list above, i also have 3 featherweights and many singers not on that list..........

    With my most recent acquisition I currently own about 120...though about 20 or so of them will be sold in the near future. I don't need 6 301s.
