I’m wondering if you know of any resources like YouTube videos (or someone I can learn from!!) so I can teach myself to properly adjust and load the machine. But right now I’m having an issue with the thread skipping stitches, and I’m sure it’s something I’m doing wrong with the tension or loading the bobbin. I’ve had it serviced and it was running perfectly fine for me. 127 and 128" - it's nice to know which is the proper manual now, although it was not to hard to tell by the illustrations.įinally! I’ve found someone with a machine like mine! Same paint and everything! My serial number is G6669938. 115" like in the link you provided, and another for "Nos. This machine came with the cabinet drawers full of goodies - looks to me like all the attachments available for this model as well as needles and extra bobbins and two original manuals. The bobbin case is different for these but you can still get them if you need one, they're called a 20U industrial bobbin case. Sadly the Singer website is not being run by people who know something about antique and vintage machines.


The Singer 115 manual that is on the Singer website, is not the one for this machine. This time the list has the sub-model, 115-1 but this doesn't mean a lot as I think it only came in the one design. Jean, Québec.Īgain, an Elizabethport machine destined for Quebec. Lol you are right, and this one is the prize :) and I don't see them because I am in Australia where American made Singer machines are much less common than the Kilbowie (near Glasgow in Scotland) and the 115 was not made at Kilbowie. Now that I know more about them I'll treat the grand ladies with the respect they deserve.

I see it all the time as well with stuff I really prize and covet in the hands of people who don't know what they've got.Īt least I've got good taste (!) since I selected these ones based primarily on appearance - mostly the embossed metal plate on the front. Yeah, those of us with the least knowledge or who least appreciate it seem to have the most luck in acquiring this sort of stuff. Another beautiful 115 with Wings decal - 3 115's - some people like me will be very envious :D again, if you can post the full serial number, I hope I can give you a more accurate date
