somewhere on here is a cams info thread - I don't know where right now. It can be very frustrating tracking them down though. I've gotten some I thought were right but were missing a little lip or some that were right but were slightly too small or sold some then found a machine that needed them.

A companion for GiGi
I just helped my wife purchase a plain older version of his that does straight stitch only. After falling in love with the dressmaker line, I am in the process of rewiring the old motor and looking for a zig zag stitch companion like this machine or the atomic burst version to go with the one my wife affectionately call GiGi. Might this machine be available or might you have any leads?

Does anyone know the model number for this one? I own the same one

Wow! Just found this thread - super cool
This is my new toy, I ended up back here searching around for other machines like it after Google turned up absolutely nothing. I was really surprised as I have seen a few Myer Deluxe models here over the past couple of years. I didn't think they were that uncommon.
Anyway, I've never seen one exactly like this before so I thought I'd add mine to the gallery of other 'pretties'...

It's been fun to see everyones' machine pictures!
OK, here are a few of mine...
The Belvedere is sewn off and ready to sell, but I don't have cams for it.
The Dressmaker needs work. I have the cams for it, but not the reverse button.
The New Home, I bought clean, but haven't had time to play with it yet.
The Riccar is just a fun package! The case has these spring-loaded bars on each side that you turn, then push in to release the cover. Then the one side comes off to reveal a storage space: one side for bobbins, the other for thread spools, with one small box for accessories and the other for the cams. The cam door is in the front, and flips up. Down side is that it has a broken driver gear. I have a replacement, just need to put it in.

Dressmaker Vintage Sewing Machine
I just got this sewing machine. my daughter just bought a house and the people she bought it from left this machine I wonder if anyone could tell me how old it is. I really don't know much about it. I think its a very pretty machine.
