From an estate sale, a Singer Class 7 heavy duty industrial sewing machine for canvas and leather, made about 1918. Biggest sewing machine I've ever dealt with. I'm not sure what kind of 7 it is - the only way I found that much (and the date of manufacture) out was by looking the serial number up on the singer serial number database but that only gives the class. I'm not a sewing person of any sort, much less heavy duty stuff, so I'm not super knowledgable. I did do some googling and found that there were apparently a lot of different sub-models of the class 7. I'm hoping some of you folks in the trade can tell from the configuration of the feet and stuff. It comes with a 110volt WMS clutch motor (400 watts is about 1/2 horse I think), 6 extra needles, and a box of heavy thread. The machine itself seems to be in very good shape. When I first got it in the warehouse I plugged it in and hit the foot pedal to engage the clutch, and the needle did it's thing for a good 10 seconds or so, and then gradually slowed and stopped. I think the machine needs oiling - I can turn it by hand easily enough but it seems to be just a bit too much for the motor. I was told by a friend who knows some stuff about old machines, that the likely problem is that the old grease in the drive shaft bearings settled, and got gummy. Then running it fast again spread the gummy grease around so much that it slowed it down, so he thinks all that needs done is the bearings cleaned and re-greased. I dropped a few drops of 3-in-1 oil in the labeled oil ports but it probably needs gone over everywhere and well oiled up. Those orange ratchet straps were to give it lateral stability during transport - the table itself has no cross-bracing - and I'll leave them there for shipping, so you'll get a couple ratchet straps out of the deal too. This thing will go freight (well crated), and I should be able to get it to any business address with loading dock or forklift, in the continental US, for $400 OR LESS. If you operate from your home, it might be more economical for you to pick it up at the local depot, as residential and liftgate delivery can add up to $150. Feel free to send me your zip and ask for a freight quote, but I need to know if the delivery address is a business, and does it have a dock or forklift? Or do you want ot pick it up at a local depot? Weight ~400 lbs (Before packaging) Items ship from zip code 68512 in the U.S. Shipping costs quoted are to the continental states only, anywhere else will be more. Payment is expected within 10 days. Otherwise I reserve the right to file for non-paying bidder,and re-list the item. SHIPPING-USPS: Please note that I am NOT responsible for the time the post office takes to deliver the package. Tracking numbers will show up in the 'order details' section once I ship the item. SHIPPING-"OTHER": If the shipping is 'Other' then it is Fedex. Fedex does NOT ship to PO boxes, so please provide a "real" address. SHIPPING-COMBINED: I always do my best to combine multiple wins to save on shipping. I make full use of USPS flat rate boxes wherever possible, and will only charge you for one box if I can fit multiple wins in the same box. If you win more than one auction I will send you a new quote with new shipping. Also, I am happy to hold items for you if you plan on buying many items from me over time, in order to combine their shipping. This is at my discretion, for buyers with dodgy or low feedback. Contact me for details. FOREIGN BIDDERS:I am happy to send you a quote during the auction if you want to know how much it will cost. Items are declared as "Other: ebay". I will NOT mark them as 'gift'. I DO NOT under-declare item value on the invoice. Do not ask. SHIPPING - PACKING: I take packaging seriously. I know how fragile cast iron is. I use newspaper for small items, and packing peanuts only for very light items. I use a variety of bubble wrap and peanut-packs for most mid-size items. I do have costs associated with packaging materials, so please keep that in mind on the shipping amounts. Heavy items will be packaged using solid styrofoam block. It is very rare for the items I pack to be broken, as my feedback should attest. I do not notify the winner of when a package is shipped, unless they ask me to, because I just don't have time to notify everyone, and 95% of people never ask. LOCAL PICKUP: Local pickup is great! Especially on those large items. I can be flexible with scheduling - just ask! Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool. List your items fast and easy and manage your active items.
