Hi, check the electrical. It might be old enough to still be good. The old cloth seems to hold up better than the 1940's or 50's rubber.

I stopped into my favorite little recycled craft shop and got 8 bobbins for my White FR for 50 cents and this cool tool for $2.50. Can't wait to use it now that I got some directions!

Hi Everyone, It's been awhile since I've been on this thread and I just wanted to show you my newest acquisition.
She was born on July 26, 1951 and has the blue centennial badge. She is a Singer 128 with the godzilla finish and I believe she is all black (I think so)....I can't figure out how the shuttle goes in or how the thread is set up in it and I could use some help on this. Here's some photos. Anne
