I have some "14" needles but they are for my Eldredge. I can do some measurements and see if I have any industrial needles that will work.

Have a question for you. Are there any special needles that need to be used for a FW, or will the 20's work? I haven't seen any in the places I have looked around here, that say anything about FW's on them. Just thought I would ask. I haven't used mine all that much sice I bought it, but I want to really start using it for my quilting club meetings, and have been hestitant, because I don't want to be in the middle of a project and need a new needle. I haven't checked with FW RX or out on the net, just thought I would check with you, knowing that if anyone knows you will. Thanks Gerbie

quote=Lostn51]This is just an announcement to let you guys know that it looks like I am going into the parts business. I know there are a lot of you that are doing so well with my tutorials and are refurbishing your machines but are still needing parts for them.
I normally have lots of parts laying around that I normally use for my service work but this is something that someone and I came up with and I think it might do well. I would of course supply for all makes of vintage sewing machines but what would you guys like to see in a parts house? What are your most wanted items.
Lets put our heads together and just see what the perfect parts store would carry and I can use this for the basis of being able to provide for my customers.
Oh and I know that new vintage sewing machines are high on the list but I am not sure my suppliers can get those for me maybe the new model 15's...... ;)
