Evo160K Report post Posted June 17, 2020 10 hours ago, Constabulary said: A few month ago I applied one of the original Singer decals I discovered once. LW member EVO160K did this on his Singer 45K too and I tried this the first time. Turned out quite well. The glue (MICROSCLAE MI-8) remains do not look as bad as on the picture, the flash makes it look "not so nice" but in real life it looks better. I could scrape it off but I leave it as is. Folker, Looks really good to me. Congratulations. Did I mention about using a thin metal erasing shield and a good quality red eraser to remove the extra glue? Comes off quite easily.

Constabulary Report post Posted June 18, 2020 (edited) LW JIMI posted an interesting link in another thread so I just discovered the model on which this Singer 16KSV11 is based on (I guess). Class 16 machines start here: https://www.sil.si.edu/DigitalCollections/Trade-Literature/Sewing-Machines/NMAHTEX/2753/imagepages/image35.htm The "Standard Model" seems to be the Singer 16K37 (see page 44) which seem to have a vibrating presser foot and CB hook. So I guess the "SV difference" in case of the 16KSV11 is the heavy hand wheel the and long beak shuttle. Edited June 18, 2020 by Constabulary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
