Members vicw Posted August 27, 2014 Members Report Posted August 27, 2014 Hi I have searched the Forum and hope I have looked in the correct places. I wish to sew boxes and cases as done some 100 years ago. They probably used a special build Singer,bearing in mind it was UK based I have seen them for sale in the past on ebay, but cannot find any now(2014) I have seen the attachment for a Cobra 4. I have read the Campbell Randal information. Does anyone know where an old Singer may be found in the UK to do this work? Apart from hand sewing does anyone have any thoughts that would get me closer to being able to do this work. I realise finding the machine is one thing, teaching myself to use it, quite another. Thank you for reading this Quote
Members Constabulary Posted August 27, 2014 Members Report Posted August 27, 2014 Try Sieck in Germany, they have luggage sewing machines it but it will cost a lot of $$$$ http://www.sieck.de/en/machines/sewing/diverse-machines/ I´m not sure but I think I have seen attachments for an Adler 105 Adler sewing machines somewhere, they MAY fit for Singer 45K as well. You may find some more details at the Adler sew24 Blog: http://sew24.blogspot.de/2012/01/vintage-leaflets-for-adler-sewing.html http://sew24.blogspot.de/2012/01/vintage-leaflets-for-adler-sewing_31.html Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
