Hi, everyone, I'm on the hunt for more machines! LOL
Question: Is $75 which includes shipping and insurance a good price for a Necchi 535A. I've been wanting a Necchi but haven't located one yet. I think this model was new in 1986. Please advise!! Oops, that should be a 535FA. |

I looked up my Bella and she seems to have been born in 1908. Just happened to notice she does not have a light attached, don't know what that is all about or how I can fix it but I was already looking at Billy's tut for disassembly and almost dove in. I just need to BREATHE!! Well here she is

So much for molasses/water for rust removal. While it did remove 99.9% of the rust (which was great) that was on the shuttle, it did little else for the other parts. However, it left the shuttle black. The other parts had a shiny finish-wonder if that was the difference. Now to hunt for some Evaporust.

I was in a thrift store today and got real excited and bought a 500A, for $30. The machine looked to be in good shape and the cabinet was not bad. Hubby brought it home as I had class. I got home and looked at it I discovered that there were no cams with it. I can not go on e-bay as my computer will not let me in. Does any one have any cams that they would like to sell me? Kathie
