    Have you visited the VSMS on this board? (Vintage Sewing Machine Shop)

    You will feel right at home. Many own wayyyy more than 20 or 30 sewing machines and they willing share all sorts of info to help you repair, restore, and use your vintage machines. :-D

    Yeah we are some serious enablers over there thats for sure. But you know sewing machines are like potato chips you cant just have one.

    That's right and I blame Billy and the VSMS board whenever I succumb to the urge to buy another vintage. DH told me, serious;y, that I cannot buy another machine until we do some serious cleaning and we get his tools into the house/garage.

    Hmmm, I'm beginning to get the 'BIG' picture. I think I "need" one more, mmm maybe 2 more. lol Actually, I had another and gave it to my daughter when she got married. I do want one with a deeper throat for quilting. See it's that habit of "needing"

    I only have 4 - one for the kitchen table, one in a cabinet in my sewing room, one to take for classes and my mother's treadle machine.
