Source for 20x1 Needles?
 
Does anyone have a good source for 20x1 needles? I have heard they are becoming scarce. I'm tired of scooching (technical term:rolleyes:) a needle down so I can use my Damascus Grand Rotary treadle and I'd love to find some needles that actually fit the machine without all the finagling (technical term:rolleyes:). Anyone know where I can find some? Pm me if you are willing to share a "super-secret" source & I promise not to tell!

this shows several sizes that are "20x1" I was looking to see which Boye number is needed (I got the display tin with a LOT of needles) to see if I had a tube or two, but not sure which one you need

Steve, According to this list http://www.ismacs.net/needle_and_sha...eedle-list.pdf I need Boye 21.

I will have to check when I get home from work, but I am pretty sure I have a few tubes of those. I also found my spare shuttle and bobbin, so I do have those if you need them as well.
