I do use Janome TB-30 (my daughter's) for the decorative stitch to finish off my bindings. I just love these vintage machines.
When I was a little girl my mom had a machine called an International Two Spool. It used a spool of thread in the bobbin area. It was a portable and the case was wood. I have never heard of another one.
