Wizcrafts Report post Posted August 26, 2016 Will the machine say 1664 on it if it's a 400W1 What has your 400w1 got to do with the topic about the 42-5? They are unrelated machines. Please start a new topic for this machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually found some old posts of yours on the shoe forum regarding the 42-5 and the 29 needles - along with some other helpful info about the 42. I can't wait to get mine set up! Just waiting on a replacement hook and some room in the garage... I got my machine from a retired shoe guy - he didn't have any extras with it, but I compared the needle that was in the machine to my 29 needles, and other than being a bit shorter they were about the same. I already ordered some 135x16 needles from Bob to try, but its good to know the 29s will work too. Bob also said he can get the bobbins if you need them... Dave G'day Dave! May I know where did you find the case and bobbin for your 42? I have a 42-5 that's missing that,and the tension assembly! Thanks mate! Bill ;)) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
