The MT X 190 work well as a Boye 10 replacement except the shank is round instead of flat so you have to orient the needle. This needle is common and you can get a wide range of sizes. Someone clever "discovered" (not me) this was a good replacement for the expensive Boye 10. I've used it with good results in New High Arms (VF1) and VF2. Best of luck. Jon
Jon; Thanks for this information. I am stoked about going to see this machine with an understanding that it may be a disappointment if it is not what the seller said it is. Oh weel, going to look anyway even if I'm not buying.
