This is the first attempt at powering a Singer industrial sewing machine with bicycle pedals. The drive system has had a few changes since to address some design shortcomings. I much prefer the more precise control I get with pedals and I'm not reliant on electric power.

  • Ha ha ha etc.

    Is this original "Singer" ?

    (:)

  • @felattila It was made in 1938-39 or thereabouts. Seems to me anything this old bearing the Singer name would be - an original Singer.
