I have the same machine, but a few years older and with Lotus decals. (My avatar machine). I LOVE it, love how it sews, sounds, smells, everything! I am in awe of it's precision movements, especially the little button that pops the bobbin out for you, and the way it winds a bobbin. Just amazing how well machinery was made back in the day when they actually planned things to last forever. And these do...

Did you take the head out of the cabinet? I could move one myself, that way...

OK deedum. Get your camera out and post some pictures. Sounds like you need some encouragement from us. I know that WE would enjoy looking at your new girl.

Thanks everyone! Afterr reading all the post and encouragement, I am starting to get excited again. My DH is planning on polishing the cabinet and fixing the piece of wood that is off. Thank goodness they kept it with the cabinet, and get it all oiled and in top shape! It runs great!
