    GheckoAZ,

    That is a needle clamp, but not for your machine. Give me a bit and I'll take an "in focus, up close" pic of the one on my White Rotary.

    Also when you get your machine all clean and set to go post some more pics on my Crinkle Machine thread.

    Steve,
    That belongs in the "What are they smoking" thread. They should share it.

    I also have the same Model 677 and I have yet to use it. My daughter bought it a year ago for my birthday (20.00) with a nice cabinet. It only has a knee pedal. Cleaned up really nice, Oiled it and it ran fine. I had the wiring redone and now it runs very slow. Not sure what could have happened. I took the old wire to a sew and vac place and they did a new cable for it. I might not be hooking it up correctly. I would love to be able to use it.

    Thayer Rags had a Model 77 on their website last week. Send him an e-mail. He also has a Model 75 he was selling for parts that I was lucky enough to get the parts I needed to fix the White Model 75 that I got from Miss Nonda. He is very reasonable on his prices, and CD has several machines. It's a good thing he is down past Lawton, which is a good 5 hour drive from me. Otherwise, I'd get myself in bad trouble!

    I have the same machine. I bought it for $50 last year with all the attachments in the same cabinet with a stool. I had to only replace belts. Such a great deal. I love mine.
