I have a red eye as a HC and love it. Let us know what you do with it. You know you need it, lol. I'm in the process of making blocks for a TO swap on mine.

Was it common for these to be electrified? And is it hard to turn them back into a treadle? Because it has been modified is it even worth it?
If I looked the serial number up right she was made in 1916!
So honestly, is it worthless because it has been electrified? And would it be hard to take it back to treadle?

The singer 99 is a 1926 model and is in beautiful shape. I bought it sight unseen.
The 301 is AWESOME! I should have cleaned it up before I took the pictures.
The Phoenix Sewing AG Baer & Rempel is a treadel machine that at some point was converted to electric with a Singer motor. I believe it is a 28Z model.
Does anyone know anything about the Phoenix? There is not a lot of information that I can find yet; however, the search is on now!
Here are my purchases, not a bad $50 spent I think!

The 99 looks like it is in great shape, the 301 looks perfect, and that Pheonix treadle is really cute! I think there are a couple people here that have a Pheonix, maybe they will jump in. Really nice start to your addiction -- oh, by the way -- YOU ARE HOOKED now like the rest of us! Great machines! What a great start -- you got it all in one buy!

Don't know if it's really a vintage BUT --did you ever hear of a small size Singer machine for embroidery that you have to connect to a computer - uses only a small hoop ?
Sorry at this time that is all the info I have as the owner
is not a computer user and she said it is old . Can't be too old if it has to connect to a computer in my thoughts.
Any help re where to see a pic or info is appreciated.

Is the "Treadle Belt - Fitall, Alphasew Leather" an good replacement for the belt on my Singer 15? I have the old one to make the proper measurement. If not a good replacement, what is? Thanks

Guess what followed me home from Traverse City? Remember I'm not buying any more machines.
Then what is a Necchi in a cabinet doing in the back seat of my car? I don't know a thing about her except that she wasn't happy being used as a stand for plastic plants in the Salvation Army store. I left her and went to the fabric store - didn't work - I went back. $27 and she was liberated.
