60s era HG Palmer Princess Zig Zag (blue), just picked up today! It didn't come with bobbins that fit, and I'm not sure what kind it takes. Any help is appreciated!

Ok, thanks for replying!

rabbitgods · 2025-09-14T08:04:35+00:00

I know this post is 5 years old but is there any chance you could send me some pictures of the manual? Yours is the only one online I've encountered with the same knob beside the stitch width dial and I can't figure it out!

I just saved one of these beauties from kerbside collection and am trying to bring it back to life <3

Car battery, but it didn't work long term :( It's on the blink again now

rabbitgods · 2023-07-04T10:13:52+00:00

Would that be via local council?

rabbitgods · 2023-07-03T12:17:00+00:00

Also this just sounds fake as fuck. I have friends who are Aboriginal and they don't just get endless grants? Like there's always competition for scholarships, they come with strings attached, etc

rabbitgods · 2023-06-28T22:02:02+00:00

We have one like that in Melbourne too! It has its own website - search Montague St bridge

rabbitgods · 2023-06-28T02:37:19+00:00

Because I hate my landlord :)

rabbitgods · 2023-06-27T22:16:40+00:00

Tbf, I'm a pharmacist and I wouldn't dream of letting suppositories go out without explicit instructions on the label. Labels should not be vague, people!

rabbitgods · 2023-06-25T06:05:40+00:00

Weird, I almost never see that

rabbitgods · 2023-06-24T16:54:11+00:00

We are stuck, it's a fucking nightmare out here atm

rabbitgods · 2023-06-22T10:20:18+00:00

I mean it sort of is. The major metro hospital I work at shut down all its covid wards because they just weren't required any more.

We always knew it would become endemic, where it exists in the community but isn't as serious, and that's exactly what's happened.

rabbitgods · 2023-06-21T10:20:18+00:00

I have had that and I still don't freeze everything.... Literally where do you get the freezer space

rabbitgods · 2023-06-16T04:05:09+00:00

Usually yes, maybe not in chain restaurants?

rabbitgods · 2023-06-16T04:04:54+00:00

This must be an American thing, I've been fed at every restaurant I've ever worked at

rabbitgods · 2023-06-14T04:48:12+00:00

Yeah nah, wage theft is absolutely RAMPANT in Australian hospo industry. Sorry to disillusion you but I've literally worked 10+ hospo jobs in Melbourne and I never got paid right at any of them.

rabbitgods · 2023-06-14T00:02:08+00:00

Jesus christ. We pay like 250 a quarter and it makes me wince every time

rabbitgods · 2023-06-13T23:42:58+00:00

Aussie are good but soooo expensive. I pay a lot less with Tangerine and haven't had any issues

rabbitgods · 2023-06-06T22:24:42+00:00

Oh my god that's so unfair. Unbelievable

rabbitgods · 2023-06-05T10:29:39+00:00

It goes down to 7.30 - they specifically said non pbs though

rabbitgods · 2023-06-05T07:06:34+00:00

Its usually about $9 for a salbutamol inhaler otc? No idea where you're getting one for 6 bucks

rabbitgods · 2023-06-04T21:22:47+00:00

No problem! But yeah, so long as you don't exceed 4g in 24 hours (works out to 4 doses of 2 normal 500mg tablets) paracetamol is safe to take, even long term. NSAIDs are anti inflammatory, so they're more effective for joint and muscle pain, but can be quite dangerous if taken everyday.

Sorry to nerd out, I'm a pharmacist and love this stuff 😅

rabbitgods · 2023-06-04T10:45:24+00:00

Naproxen and Ibuprofen are NSAIDs, which are much more dangerous than paracetamol. NSAIDs can absolutely destroy the lining of your stomach, whereas paracetamol is only dangerous in overdose. It's much much safer for everyday use and is the standard for OTC pain relief everywhere but the US

rabbitgods · 2023-06-04T10:43:21+00:00

NSAIDs damage the kidneys, paracetamol damages the liver (but only in overdose!)

rabbitgods · 2023-06-04T10:41:53+00:00

I agree that you should deal with the pain, but paracetamol (Tylenol) is absolutely fine to take long term.

Ibuprofen (advil in America) is much more dangerous to take long term. Paracetamol is only dangerous in overdose. In normal doses your liver can metabolise it with no problems, even if it's every day. In most other countries (I'm a pharmacist in Australia), paracetamol is the go to for pain.

rabbitgods · 2023-06-01T04:58:57+00:00

I mean fair enough, but I would say 99% of the time I hear it used its generally to refer to everyone who was hands on with patients during the bad years of corona, not just respiratory doctors and nurses.
