comparing long arm vs. short arm machines?

[GERRY]

I ALSO AM LOOKING FOR A USED PEROWENED LONG ARM MACHINE & AS I LIVE IN B.C.CANADA IT SEEMS TO BE MUCH HARDER, WOULD BE HAPPY FOR ANY INFO IN TRACKING DOWN A MACHINE IN CANADA, I ALREADY KNOW THAT A SHORT ARM WOULD NOT BE FOR ME AS I PLAN ON DOING THIS FULL TIME (AROUND THE KIDLETTS) AND FOR EVER !!! THIS FORUM IS GREAT, JULIE (SHE OWNS A MILLI.)TOLD ME ABOUT IT & I'V BEEN READING FOR ALMOST 3HOURS, AND PLAN TO POP IN EVER DAY, I'LL BE HAPPY FOR ANY HELP THANKS FROM G-BEAR
