Umm - a lifetime of collecting that fits in a couple of sewing drawers? I've been at it 8 months and I've got a few rooms full LOL!!

BTW I just picked up three boxes of sewing notions (mostly quilting stuff) for $8 at an estate sale.

Not too hard for the aux pin. It shares with Brother machines.
The flip ups are available, I don't know about the springs, but they're pricy.
This is new replacement parts, vintage of course, is hit or miss.

I've always wondered what to do with a touch & sew......
That one is listed again? Seems to me I saw that a few months ago. Guess none of the bikers here for the rally found it irresistible.

That one looks better than the one I just fixed up. I figured it for a parts machine. It's all there but ugly. Just put a magnet sheet over it.
