I think this machine is the ancestor of the W&W D12, except the couple of pictures I can find of the D12 show a single bobbin serving both needles. This is by no means definitive, just me searching the net.

AlZilla Posted July 5 Author Report Posted July 5 Looks like someone moved the hook saddle over, trying to disengage the left hook. You can see the extra gap between the needle plate and bobbin case. That lets the tab on the bobbin case hang up on the stops under the needle plate. Might be an easy fix. Whoever had it before was sewing single needle. Another tinker while I await the motor ...

Would love to see some videos 🎥 i'm kind of stuck looking for bed hinges. They're originally from a Wheeler & Wilson D12 (Singer bought W&W in 1905 and this 111w156 is related to the D12). I need to work back and forth under the bed and up top. Flopping around on the bench is a pain in the ass.
