The Small black metal "box" that fits high up,
inside a Featherweight case.
When I purchased my Featherweight
222k and case last year, it was missing the small black metal
box that is approx 6"x2"x2" and attaches to the
inside of the case by a couple of screws, high up inside the
case, next
to the metal fitting that holds the oil can. Otherwise the
case is in good shape. The case itself measures 14"x8"x11".

For Sale
Regrettably I must sell my electric Willcox & Gibbs
Chain stitch machine that is in its original cabinet. It has
the original
booklet of "Directions for using" with it; however,
the pages are all loose however all 40 pages and the front & back
covers are there. I have been told that these machines are sought
after for conversion to treadle. I do not know the age of this
machine, but the last patent date on the bed is August 28, 1894.
The number on the name plate is 31570.
Also included are some
needles, the original box of attachments and a separate box
containing an "improved
tucker". The wiring is original and includes the unique
foot pedal which is shaped like a shoe. The decoration on this
machine
is lovely and I have done nothing to clean it, not knowing
what is best to use.
I will send pictures to anyone who has
an interest.
I am located in No. California and would prefer not to ship
this machine. But could cooperate with a Pony Express set
up.
Even
if you are not interested, I'd appreciate anyone's feedback
about this machine's worth or usability.
When requesting
pictures, if
you have a specific thing you want to see, please tell
me. I
have taken a few pictures already in preparation.
I was
told this pretty
machine was purchased by the original owner in the early
1900's. In the late 1960's the doctor for whom I worked before
retirement
bought the practice of an elderly doctor which was housed
in a home/office set up. He agreed to care for the doctor's
wife in
the home until her death and this was her machine.
I
was given
this machine in lieu of a $400 bonus I had earned and
I'm asking $300 or best offer. It's possible that I may have
made a bad
deal with my boss! <vbg> My name is LouAnne Sassone
and my email is lasassone@aol.com and I'd love some feedback
at
least.

WW#9 in cabinet. Has at least one bobbin, possibly 2.

to do the fix, I just never got around to doing it. Cabinet has
4 drawers.

Wanted
I recently bought a beautiful hand crank Singer 28K.
I need a bobbin shuttle case, bobbins and a rear bobbin case
cover for
it.
I only have the front cover, and would be willing to buy a matching
set of covers if available. The machine according to the serial
number appears to be a 28K model made in the Kibowie, Scotland
plant between June and December of 1901. There were 125,000 machines
alloted in that period and to date I'm having a heck of a time
finding these parts. I would also love to get my hands on a manual
so I could figure out how to thread the darn thing. Hope you
can help. I'm in Lincoln Nebraska.

Singer model 27 or 28 or similar Singer VS
type machine with a known and tested working bobbin winder and
that sews properly. I don't want a collectible, it doesnt have
to be pretty, just an honestly represented machine that works properly

For Sale I am trying to wean myself from sewing machines,
so prices are attractive and well below the live auction prices
I paid.
These machines are perfect for anyone attending or

20 miles from Mary Rust's house.

that
I am giving away FREE, one each with two of the treadles.
First come, first choice.
There may be more shown in Webshots than
I have listed here because I still have more to shift to
the front of the stash after I post this message.

Domestic sewing machines:
