I acquired a Viking 6020 that is all ready to go.... I know quilting will be very difficult without the extension table, but I've looked everywhere on the internet and can't find one. It has to be specific to the 6020. Any ideas on where else to look? Any help will be so very greatly appreciated!!

Mindemoye - Welcome! Have you tried any of the companies that make the extension tables? Sew Steady and Sewing Mates' AdjusTable come to mind.

I finally got to take my Featherweight 221 to a class and 'use' it for more than testing. What a kitten--she sure purrs nice. Since I owned all the fancy machines before buying this one treasured relic I am really surprised at how nice this one sews. Now I can sew before the household is awake!

Mindymoye--I read somewhere and seen the photos of one made of wood then painted and waxed with a hard wax. Owner claimed it worked great. I am sure it would be worth trying if you could, or get someone to make you one. I have a friend whose husband cuts them from 1/4 inch plexiglass for her. Nice if you can get it.

Grammahunt! My dh says that the FW helps him fall asleep and has no trouble with me sewing late at night with it. He doesn't so much like my Pfaff for the same reason - too loud - but I do like the IDT...

There's nothing like the stitch that a straight stitch only machine will give you. It's simple physics and usually the beginning of vintage sewing machine addiction.

I am looking for the back piece that holds the tread spools, for a vintage Viking 5000 series model # 15430. I would appreciate it if anyone knows where I can get it. Thank you.

For all you people out east this museum looks like it may be very interesting when it opens.
