Singer 99-13: Converted to Handcrank

Manufactured: 1928, New Jersey
Serial Number: AC087995
Needle: Standard 15x1
Bobbins: Singer Class 66
Feed: Must be covered
Feet: Low shank

Initially I bought this machine to provide parts for my other 99. This one had no original accessories or manual, and was a little worse cosmetically than the other one. Inspired by the TreadleOn list , however, I decided to convert it to handcrank.

There are no pictures of this machine prior to its conversion. Trust me, it wasn't a bit prettier than it is now!

It's fun to sew with this machine. It's very quiet, and I can take it anywhere! But, it's a little hard to guide the fabric with only one hand.
