Awesome to know, Joe. Sorry it was "kidnapped" from you. haha
I ended up getting a 196386 belt for it. That's what I was advised to do through 5 different sites.

I think 193077 and 196386 are very close in size. I have a grab bag of new and used spare belts so when I get a machine that needs one I see what I have that fits then go from there.
As long as you got a belt that gives you room to adjust the tension, it's good to go.

Wow, wish I lived close enough to buy this one. Alas, it's a 2 day drive. The price is decent, too. Made about 1889!

The company that produced them for W&G used to make clocks, so their sense of "tolerances" was much finer than any other maker of the the day. They set the quality standard.
(P.S. This model was made from the 1870's until the late 1950's early 60's. Longest production run ever)

Said no to adding more Singers, Whites etc...but I couldnt help it. Its case looked so forlorn but inside the 99k looked nice. [ATTACH=CONFIG]479406[/ATTACH] Could use a lens on the light but it ran great. The base will need a complete redo, but thats okay. I have glue! ;-)
