Do any of you know where I might get a belt for it? I will put a picture up when I get it all cleaned up. The cabinet is in great shape I know it is over 50 or 60 years old just not sure.
I have a White treadle which takes the same belt. I got mine in an Amish store near me. They are leather and can be cut to the right length. There is a staple that comes with it to put through the leather. Mine was in a Singer package, so you might check out a Joanns in the notions dept. You can date the machine and find out about the bobbin by going to www.singersewingmachine.com. Get the serial # from the front of the machine and you're good to go.
