( 3/4 size). It takes standard short shank feet, which are still sold
at JoAnn and other stores. It does not have zig-zag so needs the old
green-case buttonholer (which does work great, BTW). You can easily
find these
Bjarne might help you with the translation, but I think you can figure out

difference between them was. So.. the green case gizmo will do both
zig-zag and buttonholes? I noticed a number of other sellers who had
quite an assortment of metal
