Bojangles, I stocked vending machine for 8 years, 2 were coffee machines. I saved all the coffee grinds and threw them all over the yard. It gets rid of slugs and it is good cafene for all plants. Go to a local coffee shop and collect theirs for free.
I friend offered me a 319 singer in a small cabinet with all the cams and feet for $375, I countered offered $150. What is it worth?

Hmmm. None of my 301's have problem with the thread wrapping around the bobbin assembly. Interesting.
Do you have a problem with temperature control and the storage of machines? I know, last summer I kept one machine in the attic and the heat cracked the bobbin fill doughnut and then I wondered what it might be doing to belts etc. so I brought it back in the house. I have 2 huge attics that I could use for storage, but I don't think the cold and heat is good for the machines? Have you had any issues?

He said he could get more for it… it looked in good shape but I want a DVF. I guess I’ll just wait.

I wonder if you can get one in working order for $100 - $150?

There are a couple of Davis VFs on eBay right now...not in cabinets, but they are around complete. I saw one in AZ on Craigslist, but that's way too far for me. Maybe not for you, though.
