    Default Finally a picture of new 201-2 and FW

    I love the 201-2 more than the FW, but can't tote it to sit and sews. Each has its purpose.
    I enjoyed cleaning and polishing them both. Will post pic. of FW separately.

    Default The FW is done at last and sews well

    This was a finnicky little devil and a real challenge to correct the stitch. It was indeed a learning curve. I cookbooked the maintenance and had a conference with the sewing machine repairman from Florida while at Paducah. It sews like it was new (1947)

    Looks nice, so what did you use (products) to clean it?
