    Yeah, that last line about selling you my old dog was tongue-in-cheek, with a dose of sarcasm. That said, I ordered a replacement motor a bit ago that I hope solves my problem, and if not I'll add a 3" to 9" reducing pulley set to it to drop to 33% of the new needle speed making it crawl. I think I paid $300 for the machine & table, and the motor today was just under $100. I may make this sow's ear into a silk purse yet!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
