My $5.00 Edison E sewing machine
This is a sewing machine, I bought yesterday for $5.00 at a yard sale. Dont really know why I bought it. Dont have much info. So maybe you's can help me. It runs, but a little nosey. Dont know the year. All I know is the motor has Edison E. What is the singer web sight for parts, or to search more info on this machine. I know this machine, will need a motor belt.[ATTACH=CONFIG]529920[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529921[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529922[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529923[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529924[/ATTACH]

I spent some quality time with that machine's twin today. The decals rubbed off on the arm on mine. It seems lighter weight than some of my other clones. It seems to be made of iron - magnet sticks to it though. Mine needed a new tension spring. Of course the wiring is shot. Mine was frozen up and would not turn. Tri-flow eventually got into all the dried up cracks and moving parts. There was a lot of rubber stuff on the back side and all over the bobbin winder. Bug and Tar cleaner got it off eventually. The machine cleaned up ok but it took a long time. Now that it turns it seems to be a decent machine.
