    Mollie's Mom, I wonder what makes the seller think that tube turner belongs with one of the vintage machines? The turner does look old, but to list certain machines it goes to - how nuts is that! That seller obviously does not sew!

    I googled singers in bentwood cases and these popped up. Does this help?

    Glenn, I think we are all 'eating our hearts out!' What a great job you did - I love your machine, cabinet - the whole package! Enjoy her!

    Nancy

    Glenn, I don't spend a lot of time in the shop so did I miss the Model of this machine? It looks like a 127, but I have not seen those decals. I thought at first the decals were the 'Rose and Cornflower' because of the green - but, it is not that decal? Do you know what the decals are called?

    Charlee can you go to the site we can't mention to see if they have that decal listed?
    :) I already did...I went lookin' as soon as I saw the first pics of her! Those decals are the Orange Blossom/Dogwood Painted decals used on the Model 27 rectangular bed, and on the VS3, Model 28 1891 version, and were only used from 1890 to 1894.

    Never used a tube turner anyway. Should we ask them to show how that fits on machine?

    I need to use one from time to time and when we were hauling it with us full time it made a great transport for firewood and the porta potti when it needed dumping, those things can get heavy! I've not allowed myself to get the auction bug yet, but that's a great idea for the chair!

    I have one just like this and I got it at Joanns for less than $5.00. If this one sells, I'm gonna list mine, lol.

    Think I have two and inherited all my Mom's sewing stuff that I have not been through yet. She probably had one or two of everything. And we owned a fabric store here for 40 yrs. have left overs from that. Will sell all tube turners for that price. woo hoo am gonna be rich
