Great score. Looks like a boat shuttle and bobbin (see avatar) is needed for the Davis and tension discs for the 15-1. Can't go wrong at those prices.

We won both for under $50! I'm hoping to pick them up today and take more pics.
Both are very exciting and very old machines, and I can't wait to see what's under all that dirt! I've wanted a 15-1 since Tammi told me about them a while ago.
