Happy Birthday. Congratulations on your find. I also found my FW at a thrift store, not even looking for one that day.
I got another one yesterday I bought from a friend, I have not opened the package yet.
the first one has been serviced and the plug replaced, as it was missing when I bought it.
I will probably sell the first one and keep this one.

I cleaned it; oiled it; and it runs like a champ. Case is in need of some repair, but there are lots of attachments with it and the original manual. Monday was my birthday so this is my present to myself. :lol: :lol:
