    Check out this little beauty on ebay 310237852315[/quote]

    Wow, it is a hand crank Pfaff and beautiful! I would love to own that machine!

    I can't afford it -- $260.00 right now, and it has a day left for bidding!

    Leaha how about you bidding on that beauty?

    They take size 127 X 1, which are obsolete, but can be found. Send me a PM if you can't find one.

    You can use 4 different industrial numbers that are readily available for cheap but I am trying to locate a dealer that can give me a great deal on a massive bulk buy. But I need to test them out and see which one works the best and when I have it I am ordering 10,000+ needles.

    Billy, Thanks for this site and all your good advice. Here are Pics of the 1893 Singer that I saw today (#11885467) .... Comments? I think I will go ahead and buy it.

    Would you refinish it or just clean it up ?

    Clean the machine and be very careful doing that, the decals look wonderful and you dont see many 27's with that one on it. The cabinet you can use Charlee's refinishing guide here in the VSMS but I done remember what page it is one.

    I love your machine!!!!!
