Hey Miriam, did you ever notice that some of the cams and the disks actually make slightly different stitches for the same stitch patterns? You can see it in the Cam chart that Jenny put up on her site. In most cases, I like the disk stitch better than the cam stitch.

It would be really cool if the cams worked in unison with the disks, like the Elnas do (I have an elna SU here that "combines" cam and disk to make even more stitches.)

I've often wondered if the chainstitch capable version of these machines (411g, 431g, etc) would be able to use the basting disk that the others can't. That basting disk is one of about 5 I'm missing to complete the set, so I can't try it.
