127W1 Singer

[Chayne]

Sorry my mistake 92 at best huh? Hmm well I did see a pick of it sewing hatbands in and I do make hats so we'll soon see. Yes Gump I was planning on giving all info and what I've learned from it from tinckering with it to pass it on. The machines went from 127w1-127w99. Machine head I rebuilt a 29-4 with cowboybobs help so I am familiar with these guys but I could a swore if I did 138 on a a 29-4 that this machine would do the same if not better

A heads up! Its just a paper weight . Just so happens they don't make leather needles for it any longer.

Hi Chayne, I recently started fixing up a 127w2, and I'm looking for few parts. From my understanding the w1 and w2 are quite similar. Any chance you'd be willing to part with the paperweight?

Thanks Wizcrafts. Yes I noticed the dates, just figured it can’t hurt to try.

Have you contacted some long time industrial sewing machine dealers? Some who have been in business for 40 or more years could possibly have that type of machine on a steel shelf in a back room where old machines go to die or get resurrected.
