It was just out of adjustment. I needed to just loosen the set screw and rotate it forward just a frog hair and it works really well now. Thank you for your help Nancy.

Does anyone have some compiled information on base/head compatibility? I remember reading that there were different spacings even within a brand but it seems that there's also some cross brand compatibility.

Again thanks to Judy the sewer and Cathy for posting great pics of the glass feet for the WW8

looks like a really old Elna. I've not seen this before. Some deals up there http://muskegon.craigslist.org/clt/3325953546.html |
Miriam,
That is an Elna #1, AKA 'The Grasshopper'. Neat little straight stitch machine. Cathy

Laura, go for it - be quirky! I bet everyone in the class will be asking you what you are sewing on! I love to take an unusual machine - it gets other like minded people interested in the vintage machines! I've managed to hook a few people that way!
Love the photos of the glass feet! Nancy |
Hey all you grandmother's, wouldn't that quilt behind the mid arm table be a great project! We could get some fabric paint, paint each grandchild's foot, and make a quilt block with each grandchild's footprint! I think that is a cool idea! http://sacramento.craigslist.org/art/3322702466.html Hummmmm on second thought, though, it might be really messy - but, what fun the kids would have!

Ok this is a puzzle. Grant PM'd me about this Pfaff 230 and it has both of us puzzled! http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/atq/3370410650.html
That black 230 is nothing like my 230. It is missing the top control for the embroidery stitches, the spool pin is in a different location on that machine, knob B, which is above the needle positioning is missing? Did Pfaff have different versions of a particular model? This is really weird to me! I would love to see that black 230 in person. Anyone know what the heck that 230 is and why my 230 is so different? Nancy |
