    Hi Gang!! Just checking in again!! Have been busy...and have had an issue or two, but nothing terribly serious. Trying to get ready for a new granddaughter that should be here in August, and have also been canning up a storm! Had to sneak in and show off what I picked up today at Goodwill... with my "senior discount", $25... Hope everyone here is well, and happy!!

    Charle,

    Strong, sturdy German made machine. It probably takes 16X1 (if a rotary) or 15x1 needles (if a oscillator).
    Charlee your PM box is full. Ya need to clear a few out messages.

    Is that Anker 3/4 size? I'm glad you popped in, too. I was thinking about you too.

    Hiya Miriam!! No, it's a full size machine...and a HEAVY thing! I swear, I snatched it up as well as someone can "snatch up" something this heavy, and carried it to the front of the store and now my right arm is a full inch longer than my left arm!!
    It's good to be back, I have a LOT of catching up to do!!

    Charlee, welcome back from me too. I love the Anker R-Z. I let two of them slip through my hands. You will love it too! One of the best machines I have had. It is also a badged machine as a Free Westinghouse. I think it was called a C-Z. The Free Westinghouse has an owners manual in English. I could only find a German manual for the Anker. I didn't have the pincushion. They are very Pfaff-like. Great find! Have fun!
