Default Wheeler & Wilson 9

I caved and bought this W&W #9..but I'm pretty happy with it Just wished it would have came with a glass pressure foot. I have one for a 9 but no inserts yet...

Really nice!!

I might be wrong, but don't think the later 9W came with the glass feet....and they're not all they're cracked up to be (pun intended) as one "mis-stitch" can shatter them.

I don't sew with mine at all...they're cool to have, but I won't chance breaking them.

Think it's the WW#8 and earlier with the glass slippers. My #9 attachments are all steel. Going on road trip to pick up a WW#8 tomorrow.

Enjoy your #9, looks beautiful.

Jon, not to argue, but I thought the early 9s had glass too?

Could be, I'm only familiar with the steel and the glass feet on the #8 though I'm very far from WW Guru.

edit: I will search the Needlebar as I'm real curious now.

What a pretty cabinet, too. Now that I have this WW D9 head, I know what she's supposed to look like. Haven't cleaned her up at all yet but either all her decals are gone or they are buried under alot of grime.
