I have a Necchi Supernova Julia sewing machine, and unfortunately after 30 years of excellent service the needle clamp no longer works. The needle falls out now. My repair shop says it's impossible to find a used needle clamp, and it must be the exact match. While I'm at it, a girlfriend lost my box of accessories and cams when she borrowed it, and the manual as well. I still LOVE this machine, though. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is anyone parting out an old Supernova Julia? Thanks! Robin ([email protected])

I had what I thought was the same problem with my Necchi Supernova Julia 534. Turns out it was the needles. Buy a new package that you know are right and try them.
Join the Necchi Yahoo group: Necchi Sewing Machine Club, Once a member you can also join the Necchi Sewing Circle group where you can download a manual for your machine & search for solutions to the needle bar problem. This problem was actually discussed in a recent group digest. AND, some members have part out machines.
Try ebay for a parted out machine.
