    Red face Well, It's mine! Now to get it home...

    We picked up the Naumann machine today. The decals are in very good condition. The cover is missing one of the decorations on the corner, a minor cosmetic issue. The shuttle and one bobbin are there, and I managed to wind the bobbin after removing all the old brittle thread that was on it already. I don't have my tools with me, so she'll have to wait until I get home before I can clean/oil/greaser her up. Winding the bobbin wore me out, as the mechanism is stiff from lack of lubrication.

    At this point, the only issue I can see is the thumb screw to the needle clamp is missing, so I may be forced to purchase a new needle clamp.

    Here is the case. Sorry, haven't cleaned it up yet either. Also, a photo of the badge.

    I can send you the needle screw from "the door stop" if that will work. Are they universal? PM me your address and I'll throw it in the mail today or tomorrow.
