CL from my DH home town -
http://syracuse.craigslist.org/atq/2466538721.html
$20 redeye
White Rotary in Martha Washington Cabinet - $35
http://syracuse.craigslist.org/atq/2479252977.html
edited to add - I see now the dates are old, but, just saying, just shows some people have over inflated expectations of what they will get for their machines! (I wonder if they are still there?)

Lisa...veneer isn't all that hard..did you know you can get an iron on veneer? It's pretty cool stuff...you can cut it and do "inlay" designs with it...according to my "refinishing friend", it's awesome to work with and fairly easy! I have a cabinet that I'm thinking about using it on.

There is no way that I can say thank you to each and every one of you so I am doing this as a group effort. THANK YOU to each and everyone of you. :thumbup: Kathie S.

I'ved never had that particular screw loosen voluntarily; perhaps she "messed with" that as well. And got the tension back right; she had tinkered with both top and bobbin tension and it was some kind of a mess. Glad that is behind me.
Now to veg out the rest of the day.
