    So your at this show now - anything else impressive you want to share?
  2. Yetibelle
    Sure I don't NEED it but yes I want it. Just like I want this!
  3. Yetibelle
    I would not have been able to turn those down for free, but then I have yet to find a machine I don't want.

    Sure I know it's an Adler - I was using the Singer 7-31 for comparison since the head parts look identical and when I would look up the Adler 20 it always had that flat plate on the front of the head mine does' have that. So since I could not find a picture of the Adler 20-20 that looked like mine I was wondering if it may have started out as an Adler but someone rebuilt it with the Singer class 7 head parts? No big deal now I just have to get it back togeather and working now.

    Sure we can figure something out. I will get some pics of it and measure it. I have 3 45k that I have been stripping the parts from. Not sure what's left on them? I will get some pics.

    There is a Chandler 108b, if it is still available I see on CL - Massachusetts - I think that would be a medium weight machine?

    I have to get the head-parts clean so I can read the numbers but they look like Simanco parts to me.
  8. Yetibelle
    I took it apart for cleaning but I will looks for a picture before that. Yes it has the outside foot and the toe-foot and has a 794 single needle. I can't tell the head setup is any different from the 7-31. Maybe it was a 20-19 at one point and then rebuilt as a 7-31? Can that be possible?

    Ok - thanks for the update. I typically attach them to the post, but that scanned guide was to large. So I linked it via the google drive. If the file is larger than the Max size your saying there is a way I can add them to my forum profile, and link them from there? I will have to figure that out tomorrow.

    Sorry I'm a little confused, but that is normal. Does the link I added ask you to make a Google account before you can see it? I thought I just made is a link to the PDF public and you could get to it without an account? If there is a better way to share these larger files I am all for it I understand the concern.

    I just happen to have 2 spare 45k deck-plates. Here is one on the machine.
  12. Yetibelle
    Thanks for the input. I decided keeping it close to original. I am missing the model plate. I'm not even sure what model it is? It is built like a Class 7-31, with the long hook shuttle and the head parts. If one of you know the exact model I can make a plate for it. Thanks

    I thought I put the link in for the 111W guide scan, oh well here it is again. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8SsIFb6Bqz7bjBSb2Y2cjlMNGs
  14. Yetibelle
    Exactly
  15. Yetibelle
    So I am starting the Adler restoration, here is the poll. keep GREY? OR go BLACK? You can also tell me I'm crazy and no one cares.

    So the little wheel in the big wheel, when you let that loose - it disengages the needle feed so you can wind a bobbin without the needle going. Then you put it back to sew regular. Since it "kinda moves" it means that there is hope. But if you oil it up it may come right back. Since you have a primary working machine, this will not be an improvement, just an alternate machine.

    I think I have all the Sewing Machines I need now. ...Said NO ONE Ever!
  18. Yetibelle
    I just like looking at it. BTW those decals look spot-on, where did you get them?
  19. Yetibelle
    Ok that looks like a Model 66. Here are the guides and a few videos. I'm sure you know this isn't a leather machine, sure it's a Singer and will sew just about anything, but it really is a basic home machine. Singer Parts 66.pdf Singer Model 66.pdf
  20. Yetibelle
    Hmmm - so that would be a 99 model. Does you machine look like that, or actually is that, because the 99 home machine also looks like 66 and about 10 other Singer machines? You should be able to turn the hand wheel. You will need to get some sewing oil, it could be just frozen and the oil will help. There is a silver dial in the middle of the wheel see if you can turn that. That may be on to tight or wrong and locking the machine up.
  21. Yetibelle
    WOW that really is good looking, nice job on that. Now I feel sorry for my 111 . This may have already been said, but what size thread are you using and how are you threading the machine? I know there are a few different ways to thread this machine that all appear correct.
  22. Yetibelle
    Well I'm glad it's getting restored. I think they are great looking machines.
  23. Yetibelle
    It would be great if you could link a video of it's setup. There are not many good videos of the Landis 1 threading tension and sewing that I have found at least. It takes that huge bullet shuttle setup very cool machine.
  24. Yetibelle
    The old off-set screw drivers work really well, I have torqued on some of those flat head screws and they don't move, then I tried the off-set and they come right out. I wish I could find them in every size Don't forget the magnet tray, they are so handy.
  25. Yetibelle
    This is way to far away for me, but if anyone is near Spokane WA they should save this machine. Looks like it is in Post Falls, ID but it came up on Spokane CL search. It looks like a Class 18 maybe? Anyway another original open-arm treadle setup.
