IF YOU HAVE BEEN WANTING A FEATHERWEIGHT..THIS IS THE ONE!

1946 Model Singer Featherweight 221 Scroll Faced/Chromed Hand Wheel in Almost PerfectCondition.

This is a 5Ðay sale that will end on Thursday night, sew mark your calendars.

This fabulous Featherweighthas been cleaned in and out, oiled, greased & timed (well serviced). Drip pad that catches any oil or grease from servicing in the bottom cover is new &without odor, old oil will give off a strong smell so that has been taken care of. Bobbin case, rotary hook, hand wheel & motorpulleychecked for embedded thread and clean. Wiring and plug on foot pedal and light bulb have been replaced with new andhave beendeemed safe. Original V styledrive belt has been also replaced and may need occasional adjusting until it breaks in or softens up. Tension adjusted for medium weight fabric, if you need to re-adjust for different weightfabrics see manual.I don\'t just service my machines I totally go over all parts and inspect, and adjust if necessary, I take pride in my work like the men and women back in the day that manufactured them in the factory in New Jersey.This beauty has been detailed, cleaned in and out. Then machine had its original work surfacebuffed down, removing most of the old scratched clear coat and worn decals. then new decals added then layers of durable clear coat were applied using the \'French Polish\' method, not an easy task, well worth the effort as it\'s beauty has been restored.

It is not necessary to totally disassemble a machine and put it all back together again as claimed to be done by other sellers, the factory built them to last a long time and taking them apart can cause damage and never needs to be done. I start with only thehighest qualitymachines and casesthat I canfind and then make themperformto their best,then enhance orrestoretheir cosmetic beauty. This machine is also one of the best that I have acquired in months.

It shows signsthat it had been well maintained though the years.Motor has been checked out and cleaned inside near armature to make sure that brushes make perfect electrical contact, old driedgrease in grease tubes ofmotor has been removed and replaced with new lube,brushes have been cleaned, internal wiring is safe. If at times thereare any problems with motor turning the machine, just loosen the side screw that holds motor to bracket and slide motor up or down until it sew correctly, if the belt is too tight or loose will effect how the machine runs as I stated above, the belt is new and this will apply. See last page of manual for adjustments to belt.Foot controller also cleaned, adjusted for speed and checked.Foot cushions on machineand foot controller are in good condition. Runs and sews perfectly-makes a beautiful stitch.

The Celtic patterngold decals are in tact and glow beautifully. Scroll Pattern Face Plate has been polished along with Chrome Hand Wheel.

Ready to go to her new home. Just remember to use the manual for how and when to lubricate and for directions forusing the attachments. Other manuals are available online from other websites and worth downloading for future use. There are a large verity of otherattachments for different applications included and are in great condition.

Case show very light wear for it\'s age. No musty smell, it has been sealed insidt to keep it fresh.

See extra photos at bottom of listing.

This beautiful Featherweight has it\'s attachments plus a zipper foot, 4 bobbins, screw driver, new bottle odorlessoil, solid strong carry case. Also includes user manuals.

I would advise to use the new odorless oil Singer makes (included) and use new grease to lube motor tubes and gears, you can order a small tube of Singer gear and motor lube on from another seller. The old ones are not odorless and degraded over the years. Never oil the motor, use grease (lube). Remember to unplug machine when not in use. Yes,light bulb does get hot!
