Post by: jk1066 on January 31, 2022, 18:49:35 PM

I'm trying to find needles size 24x1 for a children's sewing machine from the 1960 s . Any idea or has anyone got some I can buy

Yes that is one of the ones in the USA. it works out at over £20 for 10 needles once postage is included and until I have a needle I can't be sure the machine works ok

Have you contacted Helen Howe?  She's the expert on old machines, and I would think she is likely to know where to get things if she doesn't have them herself.
