This is a 1924 7 drawer singer sewing machine. We picked it up at an antique mall. It came with the original owners manual and the hardware above. It is in great shape and everything works great. No sign of rust. The only problem is the leather belt has broken. Where would we get a replacement one or what do we use instead?
i have one to a singer new home no belt i need one to .do you know the value
Thanks for the comment Lundy, not sure about value. depends on age/model and collectibility. I am really not an expert on sewing machines. My wife wanted it and we got it. She loves sewing/crafts.
You can order leather belts for the treadle machines off the internet . Also most sewing machine stores or shops carry the leather belts .
Thanks Nancy. Is it a good idea to keep the original belt to maintain value of it as a whole?
trgrubaugh : The original belt does not add any value to your machine . They wear out and are no longer of any use or value . I just throw the olds ones away .
thanks nancy again
thanks official fuel
Nice 66 treadle, you should easily find a belt online. You might pay too much if you buy one from a shop. Research both and see.
thanks bernadette i will
trgrubaugh : Around here the belts are the same price at the shops as you can get them off the internet and you do not have to pay postage .

you can buy them from the internet for under $4 but postage will make the difference - check your shop and compare. check item 260404909403

I need one of those trundle sewing machines to convert into a small foot operated wood lathe.

thanks aghcollect
You've got a nice looking machine.
I started collecting and refurbishing Singer Treadles about 6 months ago.
The first one I did was a 1910 model 66 Redeye. I've since picked up a 1909 model 66, a 1919 machine head pnly, a 1949 electric and just yesterday a friend of mine picked up a White Rotary treadle...don't know how old she is yet.
I imangine by now you have gotten all the kinks out and are able to really enjoy your machines beauty and it's ability.
