Hi
Didn't get notification of your question..do excuse my delay in responding. .
Not sure about the manual for this particular machine ..only have some loose pages which are just an overview of a different but similar styled machine...that is a Bradbury. ..
That doesn't show details of any accessories such as the table
There are members here that have the Bradbury and I have seen tables on the machine. ..but I can't remember who they are. ..
Suggest you post a question the sewing machine section ..I'm sure you will get a response as this has been discussed before particularly with the Singer K patchers.
Cheers

Hi Glenn
I used a star scrapbook die cutter (Fiskars or such)..mapped the placement on vinyl,cut the stars and painted on.Freehanded vinyl star cutouts in the trickier places.

hi Steve...
thanks!..the 97 do-over had been on the overdue list for awhile.it will take sometime to complete the missing parts on this machine..the aim first will be to get it to a ready to use state.I am going to build a new stand with a heavy lower flywheel [to up the torque/punching power].
haven't seen here any specific no.6's made for New Zealand or elsewhere..have wondered if there were any made for South Africa ,India or Asia?
cheers Gordon

hi Steve..thanks! for the compliment..[good for the ego and all that]..
the double star was going to done via my vinyl cutter [design on a PC]..but it was taking too long ,so resorted to protractor ,ruler and frisket film.the first silver star[sectioned mask] was applied and a airbrush held at the wheel centre and wheel turned slowly whilst applying the copper wash.
the gold star -a full mask overlay and this is where it got messy..too much paint lift.[and real shonky alignment on my part]
I will post the HM6 detail with an explanation about the worn lettering.

Hello Greg
thanks for the compliment
restoring this type of equipment is always a dilema..how far and to what degree of detail does one go?
