Hi Islander, I'm glad to see that you've got a new horse to ride :)
Very nice!

Just picked up this thread injector today.
Singer 758 for $20. Works perfect, just needs a good cleaning. I thought it was a good deal!

Here's the girls: Pfaff Select 3.0 & A North Country Trail Special, er um, I mean, a Sailrite Professional Long arm 3 step zig zag and extra cam to do 2 step zig zag, and laser guidance system :D

I really would love to have a long arm. It's a challenge to keep all this nylon bunched up and out of the way of the needle (I've only sewed into the bundle once, so far). I wish this option was more widely available on home priced machines ... a Backpacker's Special model !
I was bragging on another thread before Christmas about my score of a Singer 301A. My mother bought it new in 1956 or so and used it a lot. Most of my clothes were made on it. Mom is no longer able to use it and when I stumbled on it, I did some begging and mom let me bring it home. It is in the original case and has a lot of attachments. It is clean and no rust or dirt. What a score! Ain't moms great!:D Here are a couple of pics. Gargoyle, it did happen!
Since I am new to the Forums I thought I would post a couple of pictures of my injector. It's a Pfaff 1214 and it is a workhorse.
It is great to see all of these vintage injectors being put to good use for the noble creation of GEAR.
I have a newer Singer 1411 for light fabrics but this 64 year old 15-91 is my work horse and favorite.
Thanks to everyone for posting their hardware! I had no idea this thread would grow to this length!
