I'm constantly amazed at the prices people pay for these things. They
get left at kerb sides, taken to the dump, Freecycled, and gien to me
for nothing! I can also pick them up for a fiver in junk shops...

Is he related to the ones who call every 99 and Spartan a
"featherweight"? Love the ones who list a GE travel iron and call it a
"featherweight" iron, too! Plus any set of Singer low shank attachments
are "Featherweight" attachments!

Between the Featherweights and the Industrial Strength models, they've
got the market cornered!
