Okay kids (and Glenn :D ) I think I have found a supplier for the spoked handwheels for the handcrank conversions. You know that I am a stubborn person when it comes to buying quality parts for my customers and I think these handwheels will do the trick!
So if the test subject works out like I think it will then I will be selling both the handcrank kits and the HC's by themselves. Billy |

The really neat thing about this is that you can make a completely reversible quilt. Here I am using flannel on the back to make a comfort quilt, but I have done one completely reversible. Nancy Oh sorry about the pink, orange, and yellow stickies! I have to number the blocks to make sure they stay wacky! Thanks |

I did see one machine that was #654?71 dated 1904 and mine is # 640765 I downloaded the manual at this website: http://sewingwishlist.com/serata-manuals.html My friend was in England when she was given the machine 20yrs ago and one of the shops called Robert Nelson & Co was in Hastings.{England} http://mylookbackintime.com/Family_S...brill__Manager,_Domestic_Madman.html Interesting that one of the manager's relatives emigrated to Winnepipeg, Canada and one of the links you gave was someone who bought hers in Canada. I really enjoyed looking at the pictures from Needlebar. They said you could get help with dating your machine from Mr Needlebar dating...how? I couldn't find a link. |
Check this site out for dating Domestic machines. I happened to bump into this site and was really interesting to see the machines on it.

Oh and this is for the Smithsonian website and their sewing machine information.

I just posted a fix for worn spots on cabinets that you may not want to completely refinish. Glenn
