Thank you so much!! I did locate the Centery on the needle info site which is great. I joined ISMACS newletter so I can post on there as soon as they approve me. YEAH, this has been a fun search...it was challenging!

The seller did tell me is uses the bullet type bobbin which is missing. Just want to be sure if I decide on it that I can get parts. :)
