    Quite by surprise I found a Singer Spartan 192K at an estate sale today. She is so clean, pretty and ready to sew, that I am just giddy with excitement. For what I paid I thought she would just be a shelf sitter!...NOT..she needs some tension help, but she purs just fine!

    Now to find a manual and some more bobbins for her!

    Does anyone know what kind of case I should look for to put her in?

    Congratulations on your new baby! :thumbup: Woo Hoo! I wasn't familiar with her so googled it and she is very pretty. I'm not familiar with what kind of case you need for her but I bet someone here will know.

    Singer Spartan usually comes with black plastic bottom that is usually broken. a cover snaps onto the sides for a case.
    neither of my Spartans had a good base. Spartan is really a 192 model Singer, so you can find manuals by that. it is a
    3/4 size machine and a good stitcher, heavy. can't remember which bobbin it takes, but manual will tell you. manual
    should be free download somewhere.
