And I think hubby can just build me a support plate that ANY machine can sit on, but still leave room for the treadle belt...
And the price was excellent on this ~ free :)

Where do I find Billy's tutorials on cleaning?
Tammy
Mamatron, no there is not a tutorial here just for the FW, but if you order the book "Featherweight 221, The Perfect Portable" by Nancy Johnson-Srebro, she explains everthing you could think of about the FW.
As far as cleaning, Billy's tutorials on cleaning work great for any sewing machine. Just do a search here. Billy is Lostn51.

Kathie, sorry to hear about your SIL. Just try and spend as much time with her and the family as you can. My mom died of cancer and that's what we tried to do.
