I am retiring Friday, and am looking forward to the extra time to figure out all the attachments. I have found some literature online explaining how to use them.
Actually my Davis came with a little original Singer envelope with 3 long needles. Maybe someone will want them.
Congratulations on your retirement!
For you guys trying to figure out needle size, here is the site to help you. Remember, this chart is arranged alphabetically by 'model' name first! The Davis long is actually a Boye 10 or a 1X2 needle. There are other machines that used a longer than normal needle, i.e., the early New Home took a Boye 4 or a 20X1 needle.
