I think my next adventure is to try painting a hot rod machine… :-D
Do you think that I could get satisfactory results with a spray paint application? Judy Billy Judy |

Billy, can you tell me offhand if the attachments, especially the 3 chain stitch ones, from a Singer Touch & Sew 620 will work on a Singer Touch & Sew 626? I'm leaning towards yes but not sure. Thanks so much for all your help.

Kitzone,
Your illustrations have caused me to pause and think a bit. My machine number is G07????? (don't have it here to reference, but it is 7 digits long after the letter G). When I went to Singer, I began at the beginning and looked for G-7????? and skipped over the digit 0 (not the letter O). That made my machine a model 27 made in 1910. Your illustration for a 27 and 127 show different shuttle carriers. My carrier is like your 127. DO NOT skip the 0! (this is not the letter O) I went back to Singer and found G-0?????? at the far end of the list (where I had not gone) after the G-9999999. So my machine IS a G-07?????, which makes it a 127 or a 128 made in 1924. This is sad, because I was planning a hundred year celebration this fall for Granny's machine. Now I have to wait 14 years. Ah well, at least now I will have the right model to replace parts. Thanks for the eye opener. |
Hi, everyone! Sorry to have been gone so long. I brought banana nut bread for all, and just read through the last 40 pages. Wow! Some wonderful machines! I am still looking for my treadle. Guess I will know it when I see it. In the meantime, it's fun to look at yours!

I believe all of the 600 series will interchange with each other. That is getting pretty new in my field of knowledge but Singer liked to keep everything relatively simple.

I got this link on my longarm listserve and I wanted to cry.
Take a look at this womans find and know she is going to have her husband put a motor on it. http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/...78138078sWVlJv |
Hi, I ran into this myself thinking I would be celebrating a 100 year old machine next year. But, it is still a beautiful machine.
Isn't it weird how many pages you have to scroll down on the Singer website before you run into G 0????
