dikman Report post Posted September 23, 2019 The photo is a bit small but it looks very similar to my 51W59. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Class 136 (usually 136w) I´d say but unsure ob subclass. Butt looks like a Japanese made machine so W prefix may not be right. Look for 136w100 - this could be at least very close to what you have. Edited September 23, 2019 by Constabulary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Constabulary Report post Posted September 23, 2019 I guess its a SEIKO made but Singer labeled machine. Serial number does not help (me). The 51w has a shorter bed and a slimmer body / upper arm than the 136w so to me it looks like a 136 class machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted September 23, 2019 C, You are correct. Japanese Singer meaning it is probably a 136B. We need to see a closeup of the feet so we can determine a subclass. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RockyAussie Report post Posted September 24, 2019 Looking at the angle of where the feet would normally be makes me think that it may be a roller foot. The feet on a sewing machine are what is used to hold down the work and sometimes help feed the work through as it is pierced by a needle and thread.

dikman Report post Posted September 25, 2019 That would explain the funny bulges on the left of the post. I was wondering about that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shoepatcher Report post Posted September 26, 2019 Made by Seiko for Singer! glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) I found the machine in a Singer parts and needle catalogue It is either a 138B6 or a 138B6B. difference seems to be the feed type. Compound or Drop feed Came with roller catalogue copyright 1987. Try finding info on Seiko PW post series sewing machine. glenn Edited September 26, 2019 by shoepatcher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Constabulary Report post Posted September 27, 2019 Needle should be system 16x4 if not set to a different needle system (f.i. 137x17) - thats not unusual. See attached manual - it should answer most questions. Machine should be pretty much the same (beside the B and W suffix). Minor differences may be possible. If you are looking for information or parts look for Singer 136w machines 136W100,W101.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregg From Keystone Sewing Report post Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) 228-11 is the new version of this model from Consew. All I could find is that is close to this one is a Consew/Seiko PWG-7M, same frame but with added chopper or edge cutter. See attached Consew PWG-7M.pdf As for the needle CLICK the link, 134S, DP-F22 Needle The needle system is as confusing as I've ever seen for a machine, and that's saying something.

shoepatcher Report post Posted September 27, 2019 Greg, The needle system for these machines was Singer #1955-75 which is a 135 x8 needle. I think that is the same as a 135 x7 needle. Hope that helps. I think the Consew had a 229 which was a copy of the Singer 168 walking foot post. They also made a 228 which I think was this machine. The new 228-11 is an updated version of that. I would contact Consew and see if they still have any literature on the 228. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
