Simpson sewing machine
 



If it looks like the one in https://www.quiltingboard.com/vintag...e-t319345.html It is probably from the very early 1950s. Most of the later 15-clones had a drop feed knob on the bed.

Does your machine have a solid hand wheel or is it spoked? A spoked handwheel looks like the one seen at https://www.amazon.com/CKPSMS-9Spoke...%2C168&sr=1-17 If it is like that you could get a Hand Crank for it like the one seen at https://www.amazon.com/KUNPENG-HA-1-...s%2C168&sr=1-3
If it has a solid wheel and you want to put a motor on it. Do you have a bolt in the pillar under the hand wheel? One could get a motor like https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Sew...s%2C205&sr=1-7 and would need a foot controller and cord that you could plug the motor into like https://www.amazon.com/UNIVERSAL-SEW.../dp/B0738QWBYJ
Or could get something like https://www.amazon.com/Enduro-Sewing...s%2C205&sr=1-4

There are several options available and places to get them, I just wanted to show what it needs to power it. Does it need anything else? There are lots of places that you can get some parts that will work for this machine,

There is a manual for 15-clones at https://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_mac...al-rotated.pdf If your machine is like the Simpsons I linked to above and does not have a drop feed dog, just ignore that section of the manual.

We like pictures. In order to post pictures on Quilting Board, you will probably need to reduce or compress the picture to a file size that is smaller than 2MB. How to post images can be found at https://www.quiltingboard.com/attach...020-01-17-.pdf
Don't forget to scroll over to the far right to find and click on the "Upload" button.

I have found that only the big red "Reply" button or "Quote" work to give me the paper clip icon to work for adding pictures.
