That is indeed the same machine with a different name on it. Do you have a picture of the shuttle and bobbin you could show? Also, if if isn' too much trouble, can you get measurements of them?

Here is my version of the machine http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psot2gjpnz.jpg |
It's one for White - no need to measure, it's the only one with the center pin and hollow bobbins.
BTW - I own a machine for each of the shuttle types sold by Boye in their display case. Nothing else is like White. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...pszrunszjd.jpg Hard to see in this picture, but the bobbin is actually hollow in the center. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psfp5ahgr1.jpg Finally found a picture showing the shuttle with the pin inside. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psaeff6cf2.jpg sad story - when I first started into vintage machines, I got some shuttles in with other stuff, and one had a pin inside like that. I was "sure" it must be a broken off bobbin, so I tired to get it out. DH tried too, with no luck. Figuring it could not be used that way, I tossed it. . . . Later I discovered what it was, and that they sell for $20+ on eBay. |
Thank you so very much! That really helps me nail down what exactly I need to look for.
