Members chrisash Posted September 21, 2018 Members Report Posted September 21, 2018 Found this on Ebay a Singer 8-8 and it looks like it was built for sewing two military tanks together or similar, does anyone have any knowledge about this model Must say its ripe for a touch of TLC https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/industrial-sewing-machine-Singer-8-8/163215347059?hash=item2600648d73:g:8joAAOSwQc5bVZ57 Quote Mi omputer is ot ood at speeling , it's not me

I think you DO really need it - Just think how it would look all polished and painted - You could spend endless hours, just staring at it Quote The model number giveth, and the subclass taketh away .........
