If you are interested in this and want to give it a go, I'll post more pictures. And there's a serial number, of course.

To confuse matters more: I think you can find different thickness S12 shanks, maybe som needles will work.

Stein, It is likely Treadlelady is out of Schmetz 12x1 and is selling NBx5. I am not sure of the dimensions, but it is listed as a replacement.
12x1 dimensions are 1.04mm Shank diameter; 32mm to top of eye and 37.3mm length to eye. Alternate is Boye 23.
If you give me an idea of where you are located, I can send you some needles. Contact me off list.

Hi,
System 339 is equvalent to a 12x1 needle. The length and shank diameter vary slightly between needle makers but 1.30 mm shank is quite a bit on the large side but probably OK for some machines.
One of these days I'll make it to the Gettysburg, PA TOGA and make a mini vacation there while I'm at it.

Jon, I am making every effort to get to the 2016 Lancaster PA gathering. Dates are June 24 & 25th. Planning to go straight from the NC Toga and spend time in Lancaster area with my husband earlier in the week. Hope you can make it.

Maria,
I forgot about the Lancaster TOGA and it's closer to me than Gettysburg. I was just in the neighborhood on Saturday picking up chocolate at Wilburs Chocolate Factory in Lititz, PA. I really should load up the car and raffle or give away some un needed stuff. These get togethers are a great idea.
