Y. S. Star automatic zig-zager
Found this at a thrift store on Fri. It was marked $4.50 and 40% off of everything that day. I thought it was so cute and had never seen one before. It is so tiny and I read where it will fit any low shank machine. I bet macybaby has one of these. I haven't tried using it yet.[ATTACH=CONFIG]522467[/ATTACH]

Lizzie Lenard has a couple of blog posting on this attachment. She said it was Japanese made. You might want to pop over to read about it.
Can I post her site? Hope so!

I guess I thought it was only for a straight stitch machine. I really know nothing about it.

Also looked at my model YS-7004. Looks like the OPs but doesn't have the plates. Instead it has a size setting lever for 3/8", 1/2", 6/8", 7/8" and 1" positions. I haven't used it yet as I typically need 5/8"... hmm... just thinking it makes no sense to say 6/8" and I'm thinking they meant to type 5/8". It's also logical, as 5/8" is a common size. Guess what I'm getting up to do right now...
EDIT: Yes, 5 makes a 5/8" buttonhole, and a really nice one, too. They just missed it out in the instructions.
