PeterPoggi Posted July 5, 2022 Posted July 5, 2022 The Victor Credenza that I picked up from in-laws, had a needle that I have not seen before. I've attached a photo. Can you help identify the type?
PeterPoggi Posted July 6, 2022 Author Posted July 6, 2022 I think I found something on eBay that looks like it might be the source. Has anyone heard of "Recoton" needles?

PeterPoggi Posted October 28, 2022 Author Posted October 28, 2022 Funny you said that about using nails- i was just going through the used needle tin from a VV-X, and I found several finishing nails in there! LOL
