Weedwoman, you are very funny. I love listening to the banter between everyone and read this often during the day... (seldom tune in to the main board anymore)... so now I need to learn, why do you carry screwdrivers?

Well, besides using them on our own loose screws, lol, we might run into a machine that has no key to the drawers, dome top for who knows what. A good pocket knife and a screwdriver are musts. Way more necessary than lipstick or compact. IMHO
We all need to laugh as much as possible every chance we get, it's the best internal exercise there is.

I haven't used makeup in decades so there's plenty of room for my little leatherman. Thanks, A

KatFish the question is not how many machine is to many. The question is, are there any more out there waiting for me to pick them up? Kathie[/quote]
Kathie; I love your reply. The answer is: "Of course there are more but can I successfullt import them into my house without DH noticing them?" That's the tricky part for me.

Billy; Off topic of course but love your new avatar. That is a precious picture. Quilt looks lovely, too. ~ Chris

That's lucky, as I am running around with a couple of screws loose. Or so I've heard.

I read the FAQ on posting photos and tried to post a couple shots of this machine, but that didn't work either. I'm better with old machinery than computers. Any help would be most appreciated.
