[ATTACH=CONFIG]542429[/ATTACH] My husband had got me this sewing machine from a thrift store. He didn't have any idea there were sewing machines that had cams so he ended up leaving them behind at the store. I don't know if you can see in the picture clearly but right behind the sewing machine You can see a box of some red plastic pieces which I believe Are the cams. I've looked up every possible search I could to find out anything about this machine but I have found nothing. So I was hoping possibly one of you lovely friends out there could please tell me something about this machine, anything and hopefully you might also be able to tell me what kind of cams would work on this machine so I can utilize it's full capabilities. Thank you.

Those are oddly shaped for cams...of course, I know nothing about cams! I'm not real knowledgeable about the Japanese machines, but I'm going to guess...Brother clone? Anyway, it looks like a tank and I'll bet it will run for a hundred years once you get it cleaned up. Good luck, and I hope someone can help you soon!

Thank you for the welcome. I appreciate it. As far as calling the store immediately. We did and for whatever reason they just disappeared. One thing positive is how much knowledge I have gained about vintage sewing machines due to my obsession of finding some type of information on this machine. Though there are many similarities this machine has to a lot of the other well known vintage machines, I can honestly say this one looks like no other. So a clone, I'm not sure? Its my hope that I will soon have a vintage machine with cams that I can have some type of instructions on and I can afford.
