7 and counting - LOL! Funny, none came out when I checked the machine over while making the purchase. I did make a comment to the owners on how stiff it was to turn the handwheel - no wonder! Three separate times of swinging this machine up to the usable position has dumped the nuts on my floor. I didn't find any rodent yuckies while cleaning the machine and cabinet - thank goodness. I've heard of wasp nests and other things in machines but holiday nuts is a new one to me.

that would be a new one on me!

There are definitely worse things than almonds. I worked on a machine that had mouse "doodles" in the top. Then when I looked into the corkscrew (old Singer) gear, and it was packed with berries and dried corn. And dead cockroaches are always disgusting.

Wow! I wonder how on earth they got there in the first place! I inherited a Singer 353 from my mom, but a guildmate was recently selling her 221 & I was almost tempted into buying it. Such tiny adorable little things. I can't understand how 7 whole almonds even fit in there! Hope you've found the last of them!

18--if you pack carefully--so if I'm right what do I win LOL

Ha ha could be much worse. It sounds like something my daughter would have done when she was a little kid.

I'm still trying to decide what was in the pillar of my 128. My husband thinks a squirrel put in about 2 dozen acorns! When I got it home and opened, I hear a plink, plink, plink. The acorns were falling down into the cabinet and every time I moved the handwheel after that.

Your title got me going/I had to check this one out! Too funny! Lucky you, a 201 is on my wish list.
