Mulesaw Report post Posted November 1, 2021 I buy all my needles from Nadel24 in Germany. https://www.nadel24.de/Schmetz-Rundkolbennadeln-System-794 So far they have had all the needles that I have been looking for. And the needles come in packages of 10. I also like their sewing machine oil. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In particular, I am looking fir 784 D, NM: 160 Size 23 needles. Thanks for any help. Dave I just ordered three packs of 794 needles from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines (866-362-7397). Bob Kovar stocks them and system 7x3 in most or all sizes and point shapes. The leather points I get are either S (inline) or D (tri-point). Type 7x3 are round points for cloth, webbing, vinyls, plastics or smaller sizes that don't have a leather point available any more. S points sort of submerge the ends due to the slicing shape, giving the impression that the stitches are shorter. D points keep the ends on the top so it looks like you have longer stitches. I sometimes use the D points when I want the top thread to stand out more than with the S points. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I only discovered that the Opening Person was based in the US right after hitting the "submit" button I haven't checked how much the postage is though, so it could be quite reasonable (or prohibitive).
