New Home sewing "T" NO 3 Lit Special
I just got my new toy all cleaned up and trying to figure all the things out. It's my 2nd old one and I'm not really looking to start another collection of anything. It's an electric New Home sewing "T" NO 3 Lit Special. It appears to be in good condition but very well used. I was hoping the "Lit" meant it had a light on it somewhere but no. I thought it was missing a belt but the dealer I bought it from said it wasn't...motor works but doesn't engage with the wheel so I am thinking he is wrong. There are 2 holes under the wheel but nowhere underneath for a belt to go through. The only information I could find on it says it is a 1926 but the carving on the ends and the wiring seems a little earlier. So, I'm just full of questions and I would like to get it running but not sure where to start.
My other one...my first old one... is an oak 1917 Redeye Singer 7 drawer treadle in really nice condition which just needs a belt. The one that came with it appears to be a brand new one but haven't convinced my son to try to hook it up for me. I have directions...love the internet for that!
