Lyn, and others,

Here is the response I got back from Schmetz regarding the MY 1014 needles with my original question at the bottom:

Re: MY 1014 Needles



This needle system is not part of our normal inventory. I would have to special order it from the SCHMETZ Industrial Division. They currently have the following available (as of 3:30 PM, Thursday, July 26, 2012):

Size 90/14 à 3 boxes
Size 100/16 à 1 box
Size 110 à SCHMETZ does not manufacture a MY 1014 needle in this size

The price is $95.80/box of 100 needles plus $15.00 shipping via UPS Ground in the continental United States. The needles would be drop-shipped to you. If you wish to place an order you will need to call me at (800) 527-2408, ext. 324. We accept all major credit cards.

Subject: MY 1014 needles


I am looking for MY 1014 needles. The only other Schmetz number I have is 34:22 1.
I'm specifically looking for size 14, 16, and 18 in sharp point type needles.

Thanks,
Joe
As far as I'm concerned this is out of my price league. Somewhere there has to be a source of this needle. And in my opinion this confirms my thoughts that this is not a common needle. So, back to the hunt.

Joe

.pdf chart and information about Organ needles. VERY educational.

And yes when I find some needles I'll post where.

Joe-
It's the donut shaped bobbins that I need. I've bid on some on Ebay, but when they go over $5 I give up. I'll follow this post and see if there is a good source for needles. Thanks!

Considering how rarium those donut bobbins are, you might have to bite the bullet and pay the high cost on them. Or, use the machine for a door stop.

If the one my SIL gave us had used the donuts I wouldn't even have considered using it. I would have just cleaned it up and put it on CL or something.

I've seen the donut bobbins sell for upward of $35 - $40 each....they're pretty hard to come by!

Try the FW bobbin, they seem work well in my Wheeler & Wilson #9. I just got the machine so I havn't done too much with it. My first W&W and I'm rather fond of it so far.

I do have one bobbin - guess I'm lazy and hate changing/wasting thread when a different color is needed. This would be a giant doorstop cuz it's in a library type cabinet that I understand is pretty rare.
