But I also got this one "vintage?" for free, Singer Model 337 made in Great Britian. It is not working. I thought it may just be something loose because I heard something rattling in the machine. Well it was a lovely marble. How do you suppose that got in there?
The hand wheel turn but nothing else does. So this will be a pretty machine to sit on the shelf for awhile.
Looks like I created a monster!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
I like the Singer, I almost bought one just like it but the plastic facing was broken but it was a working machine. I am like you, how did that marble get there? I have found odd things in machines before but never a marble!!
As far as the hand wheel are you sure that it is not disengaged to wind the bobbin?
Sounds like you are amassing quite a collection.
