I just got this Tuesday. She is a Model 99 built in 1925 in New Jersey. My husband made a new cord for her the old one wasn't in very good shape being so old. I still have to tweak the tension.

Wow! She's pretty!

Very nice! I've never seen a wooden case like that. Just beautiful!!

Thanks ladies.

Very nice!! Congrats on your new baby!!
I just got one, she's a 192-something! LOL...has the same case minus the "Singer" on it.

She's a beauty! I'm buying a 99 soon. Such a great little machine :)

wow very nice

I looked at Hannah on your blog she is a beauty.

I left one of those sitting in the salvation army a few months ago and am still kicking myself!!!! Looks fabulous.

Darlen what a beauty your new little girl is happy stitching with her I am green with envy

Very pretty machine and top. Good for you.

Very pretty machine!

Beautiful baby!!! Congrats!!!

She is a real sweetheart :thumbup:

Oh gosh!! Hannah has been so neglected lately, along with my DJ!! I so need to get back to it, and post some updates of the blocks I have finished!

Looks similar to my girl "Pearl"...enjoy :)

Very Nice.

She's a beauty!! Heavy! isn't it!!! :mrgreen:

I have a 99, also, and the wires need replacing. Where did your husband get the wires to change for the old ones? They have an odd way of plugging into the machine.

Have you been able to fix the tension, yet? I had to tweak the tension on one of my 301's, the other day, and followed Dave McCullam's instructions on how he does it on a Featherweight. I never knew that I could do that myself!!

My DH bought a new wire about 6 feet long and unscrewed the double ends of the old one divided the new wire to take the contacts and screwed them on. Then he put on the new plug for the outlet. We had looked on line for one and couldn't come up with one.
I haven't tried to fix the tension yet.

When my brother had some electrical stuff on mine to do and the cord needed some work he went to home depot and got everything he needed I hope this helps hope you can start stitching soon :roll: :roll:

WOW!! She's a beauty :D:D:D
