Anyone know of a commercial 45 degree edge cutter?... something that will accommodate more than straps?... or even an existing product you know of that might be modified to achieve the angle? Thanks...

You bet! Hoyer is a big manufacturer of medical transport devices and I think first made the patient lift, hence the name. Now this is showing off... how I got in and out of my truck! Hey, when you're 70, 250lbs feels like 500!

Here's my solution to moving my gargantuan Singer 7-33. $50 at Habitat for Humanity Restore... 450lb capacity and rolls easily with full load on 5" wheels. My back-saver!

Since I imagine many have followed this thread, here is the set my gunsmith both uses and recommended to me as I worked on my 1964 Singer 7-33. I included a large photo so you can see the specifications chart on the lid, detailing the blade thickness and shank diameter of each bit. I asked him if this wasn't a bit of "overkill" given the high price. His response was compared to the cost of having a screw custom machined, these are a deal. Robert

For the New Owner of this marvelous collection... I have great interest in one particular machine that is numbered and illustrated in this thread. If you have interest in selling individual items, please send me a message and I will respond promptly. Happy to drive to collect! thanks, My Old Hyde....
