Hi,
I bought a Wheeler and Wilson D-9 a few years ago, thinking my mechanical-engineer husband might enjoy overseeing/helping me restore it.? Much as he loves me, my questions and requests for help were an interruption and bore to him, so I finally gave the project up as something I should have asked about before I enthusiastically got involved in, since I could not figure it out by myself.
So, I now have a partially-taken-apart D-9, with all the parts carefully cleaned, and kept that really needs a new home.? The serial number is 2765960.?
I would say it is in excellent condition, with the exception of the exterior paint.? The machine does not look rusty to me at all, but it appears that someone painted it all except for the W&W logo in the center of the sewing area?? ?It came on a board, attached to a New Home treadle, which was kind of strange, but the machine was in good shape.
I was very enthusiastic about this D-9, as I believe it is a superior piece of engineering, however I need to find it a new home.? My husband is cleaning out his workshop, and I hate to see this go to the junkyard.? It has all the parts, including a bobbin.
Do I have any takers?? I live in Central New York.? It is free to anyone who would like to make use of it.
Margaret
