I posted about my Flea Market Find earlier and had a lot of helpful replies but now I have a question. What kind of needles do I buy? A website specifies a needle type 15x1 and looking online at Joann's I can't find anything with that type. I know I need type 66 bobbins but just not sure on the needles. Thanks for all the advice with this, I think I've decided to keep it.

That was a model 66? Regular sewing machine needles are 15x1. They go by a couple different designations.

Thanks Rodney. I knew you would have an answer for me.

Evy,

System # 15x1
Singer: 2020,
Schmetz and others: 130/705H { What's normally found at JoAnns}
Organ: HAx1

Seems that many companies think they have to use their own names just to confuse the issue.

Type in "15x1 needle" on ebay and you'll have about 2100 items to look through.

I buy Schmertz at WalMart for a decent price.
