Wondering about a singer sewing machine
I just discovered a older singer in a fairly nice cabinet in a thrift type store for $25 I do not know the name of the machine but the serial number is AK174140 the paper in one of drawers said 15k80 does anyone know anything about a machine like this is it a good buy

I think a 15 for $25 is a good buy. The serial number for the one you saw makes it a 1951 model. If you do get it, I would check the wiring over very carefully before plugging it in. The wiring on these is sometimes deteriorated.
