comparison link: http://www.thetreadlersvillage.com/S...19forsale.html It sure looks like a 319. Thanks for the link. Those weird typewriter keys on the top are very interesting! I guess this is one of those models that never really took off since you just don't see them? Anyone own one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7PVL...E82789647888E5 I thought it looked pretty cool but I guess the bobbin, on that model, is inconvenient to change (you have to do it from underneath the machine :shock: ) so maybe that's why you don't see too many of them. After watching the video, though, I wanted to get one :-D :roll: Texas Jan |
I'm not surprised - most of them didn't drive a car either - they sure could sew though. I loved the video.

Recently bought a Singer 99 and once I got it home, realized that the case has an odor from being stored, apparently. Does anyone have a good method for removing the odor? I tried doing a search on this site, but came up with way too many unrelated items. Thanks in advance.

Make sure you get the names of the ladies that have owned them if you can, makes the machine a lot more interesting in my eyes... :) Edit: Charlee; Looked at your W&W - it is gorgeous. I do know the two machine sat in a storage shed for untold # of years so declas might be an issue. Still gonna go look and probably buy. Yes, I do have the disease and don't want the cure. :twisted: |

What to do??? very sad.

I love it. It has a few paint chips -- and has two areas of peeled paint. One area is under the bobbin area, and the other area is above the power supply. One member advised using a black Model Masters paint pen for the chips, but I need advice on whether I should treat the peeled edges before painting. Help?

Here is a 66 for $25 in KS. Needs TLC, you could probably get it for $15. If you are getting machines to send overseas, this is a good one; easy to convert to HC if you need to.
