Had to tho...the handcrank I just got NEEDS them!! :lol:
I understand that. I had to buy the whole treadle 1904 model 27-4 with a sphinx decal that had the original manual, just to get the puzzle box in the cabinet drawer, complete with the original manual too. Only wanted the puzzle box, but glad I got the whole she-bang. It sews good, and was ready to go, for $20. Even better was the 1940's newspaper pattern for panties pinned to a flour sack in one of the drawers. :D
