Thread: Question: You have a Singer 15-91 and all the wiring is junque ....

Mine is a portable but when I rewired it I made the power cord and the foot control longer so I can use it as a portable or cabinet. The potted motor is a fast one.

I found my stash of electrical wires yesterday. I've got everything I need to do the rewire except some long heat shrink and a grommet. I'll get those directly.

I also found out the machine was originally wired as a cabinet model. When they removed it from the cabinet they cut the controller wires right at block. That made it look like a portable model.

Now I'm wondering if I should wire it as a cabinet model, I do have some cabinets, or as a portable. I have the parts to make a new cord set so I can do it either way.

Just trying to decide.

Joe, I love my cabinet machines with the knee controller. Sure beats chasing the foot pedal around if you know what I mean.

Joe. As clever and innovative as you are, there should be no reason why you could not fabricate a knee controller. It would be sort of like a grown up widget.
