I have the motor and the foot control!!! The motor mount for mine is a bit different that that one. And it swings out of the way!

I would love high resolution!
It has a 4-footed mount. It must be a very heavy iron base because I don't see any screw-holes to secure it to a table. It must have been scary to sew like that -- one wrong move and the motor goes flying!

Mine bolts on.

I recognize it as the same motor but I've never seen one in the wild, and am too lazy to look for a picture of one to find the power usage. I wonder if it is even marked. I have an early W&G motor and it isn't marked. It's pretty big though -- looks like it's more than 1 A.

For some odd reason I read this as motor home. That would be very interesting!:D
peace

The bar thing bolts to the table or what ever the machine is mounted in. This is for older machines with no motor boss.

Mine was on a Singer 28 or 27 (what ever...) Anyway It was ugly and I put a steering wheel spinner on it and let kids sew on paper bags. The wires looked a bit scary.

I will snap some pics of mine when I get home. They are spring loaded so they are "friction drive" from the rough little wheel on the motor to the handwheel rim.

My friction part is very worn. The machine is VERY worn, too. Somebody loved that machine.
