wooleymom Report post Posted January 15, 2010 Hi every one! I have never posted before so please bear with me. I recently purchased a Singer 7 - 9. It has seen some heavy work in the past and has been sitting in a barn. It has had a good cleaning and oiling, and jury rigged a part or two. I would love it get it operational and it seems I still need a foot, something to hold needles in place, needles and bobbins. Is this machine worth fixing up and are the parts "standard" industrial type? I intend to use it for saddle and tack work. Thanks in advance for any input!
