you are mostly correct. I meant VS2. and I was thinking the "new family" as the predecessor

well, I do have a puzzle box to go with an IF machine - so maybe I need to set it out to work as "bait". There was a day when I said "no" to fiddle base machines, but now I really want an IF. But then I do have a thing for those 15's.

Other than mend some denim jeans on my Singer 319W on my MUTT treadle, I got a foot-operated presser bar lift cobbled together for my big thread injector (cowboy boot quilter) Adler 205-64.

Now to find some cowboy boots that I can quilt into a 9-patch........it’ll only take 5 Cowboys that have their backs turned for a moment.......and they might even be able to show me where to put that 10th boot......

I suspect they may even offer to install it for you if you steal their other boots.
I could have sent you DH's motorcycle boot that we needed fixed! Doh!

It was meant to be funny. I imagine most of the ladies on QB would like it. :thumbup:

Thanks for the great comments. IIRC (If I Remember Correctly) I gave $10 for that old “Popular Mechanics” toolbox at a yardsale a few years ago. With the addition of the Adler, I think that I have increased the value of it considerably.

Too bad that I don’t have the where-with-all to increase its value even more, by filling it full of Snap-On tools....aaahh, to dream......
