Great job! That 66 has to be very heavy with the machine and the wood case! That to me is the only draw back to making the 66 a portable machine!

Nancy, I love your Uncle Sam, what is the name of the pattern and where did you get it. I'd love to make one.

You know I am going to ask for the JA and the JC numbers on the machine and look to at the motor and tell me if it has a date on the badge anywhere. I found out that the Brother machines have a date on the motor that will tell you when it was made. So I am hoping that other manufacturers did the same thing.
Cant wait to see it cleaned up and boy I love the color of the cams!!!

Woman is empting her storage unit and had a Singer 27 in 7 drawer cabinet. The machine decals were toast but she had done a good job on restoring the cabinet. She is going to ask too much I am sure as she wouldn't name a price on it. She was going to look up the date for it. But she has to empty the storage unit by July 7th so I may be hearing from her.
I will have to look to see if it will treadle. Much easier than fiddling with those wires. They did such a kludge when they put it in the cabinet and left the singer foot pedal.

Ok I now wish I lived closer to you two. I would bring all my sewing toys, and we could play with all these cool parts of interesting engineering.
I would bring coffee and apple pie too!
