Thanx.

Anyone who ever gets a chance should attend a Ray White machine repair seminar. His web site has a listing of sites. We had him come to our town and it is not hard to do. You find a place, perhaps a LQS, for as cheap as you can and play host. You used to get a discount if so many came to the seminar. He also holds classes in MO, where he lives. He also brings lots of supplies and parts and sells them cheaper to students. Ray used to have a CD with lots of manuals on it. I don't know if he sells it on his website or not. Whitesewingmachine.com, I think.

Wait until Tuesday to come so you can see fresh snowfall, lol. Bring a shovel as mine is already worn out.

Ok Miz Johnny even if it is a TS, which I believe is the boat shuttle, it still looks really skinny. I would love to see that machine in person and watch you use it. Did the ad say how much it weighed. What a really nice find for you.

This is a transverse shuttle machine, hence the skinny slide plates. It has an open shuttle; easy to change.
