I hate to sound totally dumb here, but what is different that makes it "transverse"? I don't have any idea what that means, really..............I did find some needles on line that "say" they are the 12x1 ....guess I will find that out, whenever I can get it going........it is pretty and its a really nice cabinet too..............
.I have a foot pedal that is from 1904 and I have had fun sewing on it.......it there something different between a tredle (sp??) and a shuttle machine or is that just another name for the pedal ones?.i have a lot to learn....I have the bullet bobbins on that one from 1904 and the one from 1919...wish the sidewinder bobbin winder would work for those too...........
