Good - it showed up today even though the estimated delivery date was Thursday.
Bad - it wasn't packed very well, and was shipped laying on it's front side
Good - nothing got broke.
Bad - It's missing the front plate, stitch length knob and the bobbin winder needs some loving (this I knew when I bought it)
Good - it has a tension release different from any other machine I own- from what I can find, this was used by June (company that merged with Eldredge to form National)
Bad - it does not take the longer shuttle as I had hoped
Good - it does take the slightly different slide plate that I have in a set of attachments that didn't fit anything I owned.
The American is sitting at UPS about 10 miles away, so it should be delivered Monday - another "good" as it was estimated to be delivered Wednesday.
On another note, I was looking at my Boye Case to see what it had for Jennie June, and it does not list a shuttle. And then I noticed that for shuttle 22, it says "Use 14 if too long"
