Mike I'm Arizona dreaming.

My wife and I have our home for sale and are trying to get rid of stuff rather than move it, I have an old singer 1641 that has a spring loaded foot, and also a good low hours clutch motor, and top, the only thing you'd need is a set of K legs and you'd have a working machine. Now for the price: Free if picked up in Wausau, Wisconsin (all or nothing, and I wont ship)

Pictures can be seen in this post:

My wirehair Fox Terriers achievements are:

Seat in Nissan pick up truck shredded
Leather center console in Cadillac
10" hole in carpet in bedroom
Back of sofa sleeper shredded in family room

A crate solved her separation anxiety

Both of the Pfaffs are very well thought of by many people on this board. I don't know anything about the Brother other than it has one variation with electronic controls and that doesn't appeal to me from a repair standpoint. It seams the topic of Brother machines doesn't come up very often on this board, but that doesn't mean they aren't any good, but parts and support would be an issue I'd investigate with one of the machine dealers that advertise on this board. Both Pfaffs use the same welt feet, also a plus.

I second what Chris has said about Bob Kovar, if anything his comments aren't glowing enough! He even taught me how to time my old Singer 111W153 over the telephone!

What have I started? He-He

Where do they raise those Naug"s that Naugahide are made from?

I spent more time riding in the rumble seat than working on it, but as I remember ours didn't look anything like this. Are we sure this is an exact duplicate of the original?

Mike:
     Your problem may be associated with a plug-in, try turning them off and see if that helps

After 7 days of this nightmare I have both my email program and my browser working up to par, please don't ask me all the steps I took as I'm not sure!

I saw this one on Craig's List in Stevens Point for $500

This is a legit Email program with lots of narations and sound effects. Many people that install it want it gone and they it seams have made it close to impossible to remove, It hijacks your computer and will only allow you to use there own search engines and the like. In addition it forced there program My Start on me causing my Firefox browser to be unusable since it hid all the controls! Stay clear of this program or you may have to format your computer and reinstall the operating system! Oh Ya I got involved with it because they offered narrated greating cards for free.

     I'm often guilty of making off topic posts I hope no one will take issue with this topic:  This is the time of year that I look back and reflect, many of the board regulars have experienced serous health issues over the past year as well as losses of loved ones. Currently Chris/ Mojo and Mike8560 are dealing with some pretty serious issues I'd like to think that our thoughts and prayers now and throughout the new year will help. If there are any others that we know off that should be mentioned here please add there name as  we want no one forgotten.

     May God Bless, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

That's the tool, I'm going to start looking for a deal on one as my volume wont support a new one.
