Have fun with your new acquisition.
ETA - There were different bobbins from what I read in the above links. Which does yours have and were there needles with it?
Thank you for the information. I had already seen a few of the links you posted and I am looking forward to reviewing the new ones. I have the original manual for using attachments that Momma Bill had but it is so old and so brittle I'm afraid to open it up to often. and every time I do another piece of brittle paper falls off. Luckily there was one bobbin and one needle in the machine. The bobbin is quite similar to the ones we use today.
The machine does work, but I need to find someone that works on antique machines just to get it checked over and adjusted properly.
