Wizcrafts Report post Posted July 22, 2012 I have a 1942 White Rotary Imperial in mint condition. It uses up to #69 bonded nylon thread and has double-size bobbins. The needles are typical home machine needles, threaded front to back, and the motor drives the machine via a rubber pulley on the motor shaft, riding against the handwheel, turning it clockwise.

DoubleC Report post Posted July 22, 2012 Thanks Wiz because I've wanted one for quite a while but know nothing about them except they were Singer's biggest competitor. Cheryl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anne Bonnys Locker Report post Posted July 24, 2012 White Rotary bobbins are available - I think the part number is 744. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoubleC Report post Posted July 24, 2012 I decided against it, because the guy was thrown off eBay. Not a good sign although i really wanted the machine. Said his sister used his account and ran up a bif bill, and probably is true but I decided not to take the chance. http://www.ebay.com/itm/261067957999?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_500wt_950 Really wanted it too couldn't wait to tear into it. But another time. Cheryl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
