    I just picked up a Universal - it is the prettiest I've seen yet. Someone took time to make a foot control cover. And it came with two sets of attachments and a buttonholer.
    I also picked up a Premier in nice shape but a few scratches and pits. bummer. I should shoot pics. the DGKs keep getting in the way...

    Hello! I'm new but LOVE scrolling through these vintage machines. This is my newest and after researching, it looks like a 15 clone. Am I right? I picked her up a few nights ago, left behind after a quick move. I plugged her in and she hums along beautifully! I'm excited to try something fun on it

    Yep, that is a 15-clone. And a sweet one at that. I really like the look of that machine.

    Post some closeups and different angles if you get a chance.

    Pink is such a pretty color! The case is in great shape after a major cleaning and the machine sparkles.

    My contribution to the 15 class family recently rescued. Needs cleaning, but, looks very promising.

    Nice machine Ron. It is fun to see all of the different names given to the Precision made machines.

    I just received this beauty today from an eBay auction. I'm looking forward to getting acquainted with her. Any suggestions for a name?

    This one is actually named - I don't name real many machines... I named her for Sandy the lady who sewed baby clothes on this machine. Sandy hauled the SM from California all over the country. She couldn't bear to part with the machine but she was down sizing. This machine reminds me of saddle shoes or a two tone car.

    I know this is for 15 Clones but I ran into a machine that is a Singer Clone, but not a Singer 15 Clone and I had to share some comparison photos. It is a Singer 66 Clone. It is badged as a Bel Air.

    Grant, that sure is a clone. I think there are other clones out there.
