I think that the icicle stitch especially shows the difference between the internal cam and the disks. I like the disk version the best.

I haven't spent any time bonding with the Elnas either. The one that can combine stitches is out the door twice over, so I won't get a chance either.




I sure wouldn't pay that much more for the 503. Not worth it. My 403 was $50 from a thrift store, in a cabinet with the bent wire screw driver, a zig zag cam, and 2 old Singer oil cans, one of the small ones everyone looks for, and one rectangular that no one seems to care about.

My 503 was somewhere between $50 and $100 - but I got a lot with it: http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...a-t194988.html
