Necchi Super Nova Ultra

Here is another CL purchase. I already have 3 Necchi's but no Automatic Super Nova. I have the Julia, Lydia and Mira so I am wondering if any of these accessories can be used on other Necchi's.

Wow...the accessories look brand new!! I'm sure the feet will work...but have no idea about the cams.

I've been interested in the BU and the Supernovas. I think they are all metal and they run very nicely. I'm not sure when Necchi introduced the double cams, but I think it was some time in the 50s. I haven't time for it now, and I'm unfortunately not much help, but I'm sure the info is on the web. The BUs only had flat single layer cams. The later models had built in stitches. I think Necchi had both low shank and high shank models?

The cams will not work on the Mira.

Here's a guy who has made a video on the subject. He thoroughly shows differences and measures parts.

The plain BUs didn't take cams, they were ss/zz only. Italian Necchi zig zag models are high shank, straight stitch models are low shank.
