Yes but there's enough of us PNW people here that it could be pony expressed very easily.

That's one of my favorite models. I don't have that exact one but I do have a close relative:

Mine was $30 in a nice cabinet, found in a Lynnwood strip mall. These are great machines -- really quiet and smooth, 1.2 amps, built-in buttonhole drive, the dials have a high-quality feel.

The one I showed is at the Seattle store, and it was at 10 bucks this morning. It's calling your name...........LOL.

I just bought one at an estate sale exactly same machine! The cabinet is wonderful, lots of drawers and large extended tabletop! Only problem is — I got it home, hooked it up and noticed I got a slight shock when I touched it. When I tried to sew with it, the motor sounded but wouldn’t run. The light also flickered when it was trying! What do you all think? I also got a lot of assorted accessories with it. I don’t know what this one is! Can anyone tell me?

It's a needle threader.
