No. 8 What is the correct bobbin case
My new No. 8 (serial# 497326) didn't come with a bobbin case or bobbins. Note this is the first W&W I've ever played with, and I have no idea about these machine. Anyway when I saw the bobbin case

Re: Did the #3 always have the closing top?
I have seen yours in old advertisements. Does the bonnet come off or just flip back? Jorge

Re: Did the #3 always have the closing top?

Re: Did the #3 always have the closing top?
Actually some did not. Some came with just a side drawer as you can see No 2 and No 1 drawings. Even in the first page? you see that the lady in that photo has one without a top. Jorge

Re: A New Wheeler & Wilson or Two
Tammy, your new machines are fabulous! I love those W&W cabinets. My No 8 is very similar, but my cabinet only has the left side drawers. I have found that you can find room for treadles you never

I was a bit shocked I thought you were asking me. I wonder if it may help you to have a search on Youtube to see if it helps. One of my machines I think it is my Bradury made in Manchester UK has an
