I am concerned about the condition of the items in the photos. Once you had to find a keyway of the bevel gear shaft to check and someone performed a wedge test destroying the original solution. In the case of a very probable lack of a used part, it may be necessary to weld it and make such a connection from a new one, similar to the surviving groove from a rope-driven wheel. The problem is probably not so trivial... What's the idea? Thanks for the cause of the problem and all the hints. Happy New Year. Jack https://photos.app.goo.gl/JBeMzvkcAfpRD2YD7

Thanks for the replies - it really doesn't make sense to invest in it. Too bad someone treated her like that. Greetings to all - I will look for another one in its original condition, without interfering with its mechanics and appearance. Thanks again for your response.

Hello everyone - thank you for accepting me to the esteemed group of this forum. My name is Jacek, I come from distant Poland and I am fascinated by the mechanics and technology of yesteryear. I am not a tailor, but my fascination also reached sewing machines from the 9th century. I have a few of them (including a brand new 216G), but my last purchase for a bargain price ($90) is probably not a hit... Lack of hardware on the body, shaft of the bevel gear after breaking the wedge repaired with a home-made method that destroyed the original key, drive wheel, painted decorations... A table welded in two places... Oh... There was a moment to make a decision... I have doubts whether its reconstruction makes sense... But what hardware are we talking about? I don't know, although it seems to be some model from the company "Claes" 200-3 - very similar - but it's probably not her... Please help in identification. Merry Christmas! Greetings to all from cold, until recently snowy Poland. Jack https://photos.app.goo.gl/TGfCNub9AGK1cVup8
