Members arjon Posted July 2, 2022 Members Report Posted July 2, 2022 This is amazing. I have the same machine, it's nice to see someone else with one. Looking forward to seeing more contributions from you. Very nice work. Quote
Members Hypomelanistic Posted July 3, 2022 Author Members Report Posted July 3, 2022 Hi Arjon thats awesome I am glad you enjoyed the pictures. I have a question for you (or anyone else who might also have a similar machine). Do you happen to know where the "Feed Driving Eccentric Connection Oil Tube" hooks up on the bottom of the machine? Mine was falling apart when I got it so I am not sure. The "Feed Driving Eccentric Connection" (i circled in blue) of course moves depending on the stitch length. That makes me think if i hook the felt to it (there is a hole on the top of it that maybe the end of the felt could be stuffed into) it might eventually break because of the movement. Any insights? Thanks a ton for the help. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted July 4, 2022 Members Report Posted July 4, 2022 @Hypomelanistic Can't help you with the oil tubes unfortunately , thats totally foreign to me. Are you going to restore the old table, or get a new one? HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called?

Members Hypomelanistic Posted July 5, 2022 Author Members Report Posted July 5, 2022 @Handstitched I don't have a plan for the table yet but I think the original is too far gone. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted July 5, 2022 Members Report Posted July 5, 2022 Yep, looking closer at the pic, it looks water damaged . Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called? Incontinentia.......Incontinentia Buttocks '
Members Scoutmom103 Posted July 5, 2022 Members Report Posted July 5, 2022 Nice work. Where did you find the oil wick felt? Quote
Members Hypomelanistic Posted July 5, 2022 Author Members Report Posted July 5, 2022 @Handstitched I think you're right about the water damage. I have some maple butcher block table tops I got at an auction that I think I will use. @Scoutmom103 The felt wick I used is McMaster Carr part number 8767K21. Quote
Members Jbeck Posted January 11, 2024 Members Report Posted January 11, 2024 This is beautiful work. I just got a Singer 211 that needs some work. Do you happen to have a 3D models of the mounting bracket and drive wheel and a model number for the motor you used? I'd be curious to see what the cost would be to replicate parts of what you've done. Thank you! Quote
Members Quade Posted January 11, 2024 Members Report Posted January 11, 2024 I installed a Sailrite Worker B motor on the back of my 211 for a short while. It got in the way of tilting the machine back for maintenance so, I ended up switching to a conventional servo. Quote
