    I need to start going to garage sales! I limit myself to the occasional EBay meandering, Craigslist, and Freecycle. Afraid if I go to a sale I'll come home with goodies other than machines and their accoutrements.

    I can't get over that. Lucky you. I have a featherweight but would love to find the table. Enjoy.
