Sewing Machine for engine to drive
Hi all, I have been driving this sewing machine from one of my engines at rallies, it is now here to be collected as there is no way it will be possible to post or courier, [too much risk of damage with couriers].
The machine is I was told when purchasing it is an industrial type Singer and quite old, it was originally a treadle type machine, as seen there is a 10 to 1 reduction gearbox now fitted to slow needle speed down, last time I displayed it used my Norman T300 using the vee pulley that is part of flywheel as driven end to box, and it went well in fact I received a rosette and bottle of wine as a " one of best of interest items in crank up".
The machine part , which is quite heavy can easily be separated from its original wood base part if you want to for movement around.
Also have the Stuart Water Pump for sale that is in the pumps and engine driven equipment section, looking at very near £100 for it collected
As seen am looking at £70 or VERY NEAR offer.
PM me please if you would like to have a look at it in working condition can easily rig it up for this via an engine.

Re: Sewing Machine for engine to drive
Yes your are correct Arthur, I was told it was a 96K from the gent I got it from, it was originally a treadle machine, with it being so heavy he delivered it to me in separate parts, it had been converted by an electrician to electric power, I kept what I wanted and gave the rest of it away. It runs so smoothly but by jings it is heavy compared to my daughters hand crank old Singer she has.
