I have the head, and the top of the cabinet, so need to have 'hubby' build a 'skirt' for it so it can sit on the wooden frame and not the machine itself. I have never heard of a VF machine before, and didn't even know what I was buying, but it only took me a 'nanno second' to decide to buy it!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994575359990994574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574125795004379974.post-69773901138129669192011-11-23T18:13:34.830-08:002011-11-23T18:13:34.830-08:00Charlee the manual you printed off the web is the ...Charlee the manual you printed off the web is the same one I have.

My husband broke pitman arm he didn't know that it was wood. I'm so happy you found Hazel. Your machine was No.8 and sold for $60.00. That what it says in the book. If you would like I will make copy's of them they are very fragile.
