    I agree with ArchaicArcane's DH only I would have said "Stupendously beautiful".

    oh my gosh, that thing is gorgeous John! It has been good for me to read all about everyone's 500. I finally pulled my first one out of it's cabinet yesterday, and oiled it. Everything moves freely inside - dirty though. The outside is so yucky, I see pretty ones and wish for them. Beginning to see that at least I do have one, even if it is yucky. I need to put time into it, so it isn't yucky! Worst case scenario, I could pick an entirely different color scheme, and learn to paint! =))

    Sorry, ArchaicArcane. I just saw your question. Mine are all black and look like they might be a little smaller.

    These are the ones that the 158-19142 uses. I love the "books" they come in. The buttonholer and other accessories all came in books you could stack on a shelf. I actually bought them for the book, but it's not as handy to carry to a S&B as I thought.

    sew4nin, do yours look like this, or different?

    No worries. Was just trying to narrow them down for you. I wasn't sure if they were just in a different case and different colors or different altogether.
