So...did anyone have the forsight to download the PDF files for dating machines from Singer before they took them off the website?

I couldn't until I recently got a new computer (my old one just didn't have the space for them) but I didn't get it done before they were gone. :(

If you got them, may I beg a bit here? Would you consider emailing them to me?

They still have them - just hid the links!

These are links that show the year, but the PDF files that would tell you the model number are gone. I did not download them, but printed out some pages.

charlee, love that cabinet, it will be easy to sand just the top, the drawers are still in really good shape...nice machine

Yes, I notice that too last night while looking up a number.

:(

I wish Singer would be more helpful for us that would like to not only date the machines, but identify them as to were they were made.

Physics 101
Science as to the beach ball staying up in the air about a couple of feet above a vacuum cleaner. Not a mystery, but Bernoulli's principle, sometimes demonstrated in high school science classes. I was always fascinated with the ball. Sometimes it would be tilted off from center of the vacuum cleaner and would still stay up, Coanda effect.

Sears had science too - you could stand on a thing and get an Xray of your feet in the shoe department.
