The restoration of the Singer 45K25 is finished!!  The cylinder arm machine was disassembled, cleaned, stripped, re-japanned and reassembled.  The machine sews 3-1/4 stitches per inch. The decals used are original, 100 +/- year old Singer gold leaf from one of our LW members.  The project has been extremely interesting as well as educational.  Much of the researched material can be found in the original Leatherworker (LW) post, which is suggested reading: “First Try at Japanning On a Restoration
