ZiggeT Report post Posted January 21, 2018 Anyone know something about Singer 45ksw99 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe Report post Posted January 21, 2018 It's probably a Singer 45K-SV99 like the one described on this page: https://www.jomimachines.co.uk/shop/uncategorized/singer-45k-sv99-industrial-sewing-machine/ It's a Special Version of the base Singer 45K. What exactly it is that makes that particular version special is hard to tell. It's also often hard or impossible to find documentation about particular SV models.

jimi Report post Posted January 21, 2018 I think the 45ksv99 was the later 45k92, the only difference i can see from the normal 45k1 is that it has reverse if you need to know anymore just ask as i have both of these machines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted January 22, 2018 I belief sometimes SV machines just differ from stock / off the shelf machines by the accessories the machines came with. But there are no records available what in particular every single SV machine was set up for or what accessories they came with. Agree with Jimi if your machine is like the one UWE has liked it is a flat bed machine with reverse. In case yours comes with accessories I´d like to see what it is in particular. Not many 45K´s with reverse are around most I have seen just had plain forward stitch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Folker and Uwe, Just in case you did not see the SV post, i never noticed that in one of the 45k topics (which is on the SV topic) the old 1907 book with the different types of machines was written on by someone (possibly around that time) who put up the prices in pounds and dollars and also wrote the type of machine it was before and after. and a lot of them before hand were SV models according to who ever wrote the notes. this brings me to think more like Sample models instead of Special models because they seemed to be given their class afterwards?? they seem to have launched a certain type of machine possibly looking to see if it was accepted and then tweaked it and give it it´s new class number?? ( which also at times got superseeded by another machine) example the 45k64 was an SV 49 then 55 model before it changed to 45k64 then was superseeded i think by the 45k68,69,71 type as it shares the same plate setup as the 68 i think it was which is not repeated in any other class?? anyway...just a thought a no real proof if this??
