If it weren't for eBay and the internet, most of this stuff would be in a landfill somewhere -

What she said. At least we have a shot at finding the parts we need thanks to Ebay and the Internet.

I have a lot of new needles - but they are not in their packages and I have no idea what size they are or how to find out, either. Hate to just throw them away. I have plenty of machines they might be used with - even though I got lucky last week and sold one of my 5 FW's.
