My D-9 is the drop head version. I acquired the machine first and the cabinet later. I cleaned the machine the best I could. It has no decals and looks as though someone painted it. However all the

Hi Diana; The D-9 is a very good stitching machine. Is your D-9 a covered top version with the bandwheel out side the leg or the drop head with bandwheel inside the leg. No real difference in the

Hello! My name is Diana Burrow. I live in Alvin, Texas. I love to sew for my family. I have my mom's 301-A Singer and my Dad's 221-K Singer. My husband surprised me recently and brought home a

I do the same Judy. I only meant that if you should decide to walk away from the machine, or take your feet off for whatever the reason the treadle brake will prevent the treadle pedal from "falling"

it's interesting that you say to not keep your feet on the pedal when not sewing..... i have developed the habit of holding my feet on the pedal and, when the machine stops, holding my feet steady in

Also if you accidently run a 9 class machine backwards, no injury will occur to the work, or the machine. The hook and feed are very well designed. In the worst case the cloth will not advance, and

Its only needed if you are new to the concept of the balance wheel spinning away from you. Most sewers are used to machines that spin towards you. It also helps keep the machine from turning when you

So, I have a question. How necessary is that device to keep the wheel from going in the wrong direction? My 1939 Singer foot treadle does not have it neither does my new to me Weeler and Wilson

Shar1, very interesting--good job! I can easily feel (with my fingers) the slightly raised outline of the decals on my WW D-9, but there is almost no gold showing. I can't quite tell if the paint

Carl, last fall I cleaned up, polished and re-shellacked a D-9. I thought I was going to use it for sewing but not having a device on the wheel to prevent it from going the wrong direction ended that

I was finally able to load a scan of Hertzberg's Plate VII to the photos section. ?It appears to depict the details of an early W&W no.1-4.

Well, I have gotten to the point in restoring the no.3 where I am preparing to re-apply the gold (yellow?) detailing on the frame parts. ?I have some questions I hope people may be able to answer.

Bill Tucker of the e-mail address below (At Bottom) would like to join our W&W group. He had sent his request to the wrong e-mail address & then contacted me directly as a co-owner of the group. I

Thank you, Helen for your suggestions!. Betty

Miller,? Yes, I have that adjustment on the bobbin plate. Thank you for pointing that out! I noticed many machines for sale have the bobbin cover missing so I figured sewers found the cover

Hi Betty. From the way you worded your question; "Is there an easy way to get the bobbin plate to slide out smoothly?" I assume you have had the plate out, just that it was not smooth. This is a

Yes, you are correct. I do have that last patent listed on the right side of the plate. Jon has contacted me and i have put in my order for needles and bobbin. Is there an easy way to get the bobbin

Hi Betty; Sounds like you indeed have a D-9. It should however have a last patent date of Aug 3, 1892. If you note the patent dates on the right hand plate there is likely 7 dates listed. They read

One thing that can be said absolutely with certainty about these lovely machines, is that the decals are FRAGILE. I have had several with reasonable decals, one or two with almost none.. If you

Hi, William, a finger goes through the bobbin itself. ?Yes, I see the motif repeated on the seal in gold much better and you are correct, it is an ampersand! Thank you!
