Hmm ... ? Then, it's a dead end? I asked if there was anyone that would have information on it, but they said, "no." There are two girls (women) that handle those calls. I just wish I knew more.

Oh, and you are probably right, but which factory .. that is the mystery, now.

Have you posted a picture of this particular machine?

paulsmithswife

Not yet. I have the photos on my phone and am looking for the "cord." But, it should be soon

Jeez, since we are all posting photos of our New Homes, here is mine. This is a 1926 New Home T No 3 with a coffin top with "Tree of Life" carvings. She has a friction pulley motor and runs very nicely, but takes a hard to find Boye #4 or 20x1 needle.

This is the machine . Any help would be great.
I cannot get a good pic of the serial number but I do have it.

Here is what I have been wondering ... Janome acquired New Home in 1960 when New Home was 100 Yrs. Is it possible that is why my model is not familiar? Maybe it's the anniversary model that never really was because New Home ceased to exist?

I doubt if you are going to find much info on that - are you needing a manual? how to work it? have you figured out how to make it zz? What are you needing?

paulsmithswife

I am hoping to find a manual. I see that one was sold at some point on vendio. I have a 54 necchi .. so, I may be able to figure it out, but directions would be fantastic. The button sticks a little. But, it is missing the needle clamp So, although the machine appears to run smoothly and well, I don't have the part to make the needle stay.

To tell the truth I am not a fantastic "sewer" but love sewing machines. So, I have a collection of them that are getting ready for their new room. Here is a question, though .. I worry about what kind of oil to use and have opted for my husbands bicycle product which is an all-purpose with teflon .. any thoughts on that?
