Wow, very nice! Was it easy to convert it to a hand crank?

Did you use the tutorial on this site to clean it? I have been reading it, but haven't had the nerve to try it yet http://www.quiltingboard.com/virtual...jsp?vsnum=1013 Scroll right down and it will take you to the cleaning tutorials |
That type is what I learned on 4 or 5 yrs old then mom got an electric so I was 13 before I was allowed to use it

YAY!!! I did the same thing with my 1928 99...she needed a knee controller, and they are hard as hen's teeth to find. I also wanted a portable no-electric machine, so I put an open spoke handwheel and handcrank on her. She sews so quiet!! Wonderful and fun!!
Great minds think alike!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :D |
Lucky you!
|
That's fabulous! What a pretty little thing she is, too.
|
One of my 99s is on my list for putting on a hand crank. Yours looks very nice!
|
Cute little gal. I like my no electric, foot powered gal myself - don't think my arms could take the crank but am happy for you.
|
I don't understand the hand crank, do you have to turn the wheel for every stitch and have the other hand to hold your pieces ?? I need both hands to hold my work and keep pieces together.
