Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

My BAD.  I used that word.  you know the one. ASSUME.  

BUT good news. Is your wife's old singer a 66 by any chance?  if it is then you have a little surprise

I KNOW, I know.  people say they will not sew leather.  they also say........and that isnt true either. LOL

If you have a 66  then buy some #20 leather needles and you can sew 2 pces of 6oz  together  

here is a video of an old singer I picked up for almost nothing.  I oiled it and put a needle in it

Not sure of the model number.  Like a lot of old stuff that accumulates, it's somewhat buried under a lot of other old stuff so I can't easily get to it but I can see it from here!  For now I'm content hand stitching.

Well now you have me more curious than a cat. I gotta know what you have  under that stuff.

I picked up one of those Chinese patcher just for the fun of it i hane my other machines but I wanted to check it out just to see what I could do with it. 

After some adjustments and modifications it's actually not a bad stitching machine 

The one with the bearings is definitely a plus 

id send some pictures of some work but I can't seem to figure out how
