i noticed that on your stripped down machine, the sliding plate was taken off for the refinishing. i have a singer made in scotland in '53 and the sliding plate is gone. do you know where i can get one that will fit? i also need a rubber belt. i have the old one, but it's very worn. on the one that you're refinishing, do you use modern bobbins?

Beautiful work on the sewing machine, Billy....Oh yea, beautiful work on your hedge too :-( If for some reason an eleven foot high hedge was "hanging" in her yard she should have spoken with you about it, sounds like a controller to me. What is the saying, good fences make good neighbors, maybe we can change that to good hedges. Maybe a fence would be the answer. Anyway, hope you can resolve this without too many bad feelings.

I've got to let DH read this thread. You're his kind of guy. He would totally do something like you're doing to make his point. We have a major issue (well it's a lawsuit now) with the owner of the property next to ours. They redid their backyard drainage pattern and flooded our house. The owner would not take responsibility for it until we sued her..and this has now gone on for 6 months. He wanted to write letters to all of her neighbors in Ohio and tell them what kind of person she is. He said it would make him feel better. Nothing really changes, but he gets to yank on her chain a bit. You go, Billy!!!

Billy,
Have you thought about planting something there that has thorns? Maybe something that bees like to live in? lol I LOVE my neighbors. On two sides are horse pastures, and across the road is a herd of Angus cows and calves, and a pair of donkeys. I prefer 4-legged jackasses over the 2 legged kind. Good luck with the dingbat neighbors. |

Didn't get notices today on this. I got worried afraid she tried to get you or something.

Nah I am giving her a break. I really think she got the idea and I am not pushing it any further. She was given a citation and has to pay a fine and clean her backyard up so thats good enough for me!
