Description
Adjusting my Singer patching machine, model 29K-60. I acquired this one fall of '14 and disassembled it shortly after getting it. It wasn't until 2 or 3 months later that I rebuilt it.Specifically, I'm adjusting the foot height so it sits at just the right level when lowered.
I'll get more pics of this machine and treadle stand when I have the machine secured to the stand (may be a while yet)
Its name is Patchrick

This one is... 1942 if I remember correctly. Somewhere around there. One of my newer machines

Oh yes, that's where I looked in the first place. It's very fortunate that company has kept those records. Often time it's impossible to date an antique

I love the outfit you have on for this shot, just about the right style for the period that lovely machine was "in its prime".
You've got some really beautiful classic sewing machines, I'm in awe.

So, I basically have decided that you walked straight out of some kind of steampunk fairytale anthology. You're the slightly mysterious but non-threatening character that shows up in a whole bunch of stories, not as the protagonist, but right when the protagonist is stuck, and you show up in a perfectly normal way that makes perfect sense, and you happen to know how to fix the broken thing, or have a necessary object, or know a thing that allows the protagonist to get out of whatever rut s/he happens to be in, and when they turn around to thank you, you have mysteriously vanished. You show up in like, 70% of the stories, half of the remaining 30% mention you in subtle ways, and you are never explained. You probably have a shop, and it's either 1) in the middle of a big, crowded city, and its a small building wedged between two much larger buildings, or 2) right outside of a village that's just barely not a town yet, nestled into the edge of a forest. Either way, narrow rickety stairs and a waterwheel are involved.
These are the things that happen in my brain when I look at the things you post.

This one works great now. When I got it, the mechanisms were moving stiffly but now that I've cleaned it up it works like a charm

That is so cool, I love that you've named it, too. Do all of your sewing machines have names?

Only a couple ATM. I've name a couple others but forgot them... so I have to rename them again, with something I can remember...

aye, and now it runs like a charm too. It was horribly neglected when I got it, very stiff and crunchy when moving it.

Yeah, but those things are built like tanks. I had one of the first electric Singer sewing machines, made in the 1910's, I think, and holy cow! There was NOTHING that machine couldn't sew! I'm glad you got yours back in working condition.

the best part is, even with all the grit in the mechanisms, there was hardly and rust and no measurable wear. It's still a very solid machine. The steel they used back then was brilliant.

That is awesome.

If you can't remeber Patchrick(I can't get over how you spelled it. It's so punny) then I guess you would need to think of something else. I hope you are able to make more fantastic work with Patchrick.
