I got the same set of cams and feet. I just won 3 more cams and an original instruction manual on e-bay for $8.50 + shipping. These machines are so great because they are NOT computers! I love my fancy computer sewing machine, but it is so sensitive because of the computer that runs it -- ! These old machines couldn't tell if the upper thread and bobbin thread were different weights, if the needle had a tiny nick, if the bobbin was a little off -- they just sewed and sewed through anything!
