Singer 15-91
 
1 Attachment(s)
Just finished cleaning and oiling my Singer 15-91. It was a little dusty, but overall in good shape. I switched it over to my cabinet as this will be my primary sewing machine. It not quite as nice as my White, but it makes a great stitch and will perfect for my upholstery projects. Here is the thread on my White:

Thanks for reading.

I love my 15-91 too. It was my mom's and she taught me how to sew on it. I don't use it as much as I should. Thanks for posting yours, I think I'll clean mine up and oil it and start to use it again.

Nice machine. I wish I had a cabinet for mine. I'd like to get it out and cleaned up. I learned to sew on one of these. Made a sweet stitch. Thanks for sharing.

I have one of these too.....got mine at an auction last weekend for $5.00!! This one is in pristine condition and in the original cabinet. I have searched the serial number and it is a 1948 model. I haven't done much with it yet other than plug it in and pushed the pedal. It runs nicely and is quiet. I will have to replace the belt as it is worn and will probably break with much more use. Hope to get to it tomorrow and give it a good cleaning and oiling....

Congratz. I know these older machines can be had for great prices. I'm a bit of a noob and will definitely be on the look out for market steals. Sounds like your machine is not a 15-91 because of the belt, not gear driven. It may be more closely related to the 15-30. Take a look at this site to confirm.
