Any discussion about a 99K in there somewhere?I just bought a cutie (1954 99K) and don't like how the motor sounds. Are they hard to work on?
2 Doods; I have a 99 K from 1923, I think, and it is much noisier than any of my Singer 15s or any of my other vintage Singers. I do not know if this is specific to 99s or just something with my machine and perhaps yours, too. Maybe one of the gurus can help. You can work on them on your own. Patience is helpful as is only working on small manageable bites at a time. If taking it apart, big or small pieces, have seen suggestions for putting the machine in a box lid with a large disposable diaper or towel underneath so the small pieces which might drop are caught before hitting the floor, hopefully. I hope this helps some.
