[quote=Charlee]From John's needle list:

Davis Challenge 1x2 C 1X 10 F FF B 54 17 F;DD;B C 673 Davis [N.S. F.S.]
National Challenge 20x1 E Z 14 J BB C 56 15 J;K E 53 Eldredge F.S.

So if her Challenge takes a 20x1, would that not make it a National made machine?
ACK! I get more confused by the minute...gotta LOVE it! :lol:

Yes, but Kathie just told me that she found a needle package with the Challenge marked 127X1, which is neither a 20X1, (Boye 4), nor a 1x2, (Boye 10 Davis long). The 127x1 is a Boye 18, the needle the W&W and Singer 9W use! Go figure! I am sticking to my guns that, that Challenge is either a Davis or a National!

Ok I just compared Kathie's Challenge cabinet to my Davis Vertical Feed, and the two cabinets have the exact same drawer pulls! The cabinets look almost alike too!
