Vintage Walnut Singer Bentwood Case forfull size machines (15, 66, 201, etc.)
This case has been completely restored andproperly done.
Started with a good solid case andremoved the original hardware. The old finish was carefully stripped by hand,then the case was progressively hand sanded down to 220 grit on all interiorand exterior surfaces.
A natural (clear) stain was applied tothe exterior surfaces to bring out the beatiful walnut grain pattern. No colorwas added. The walnut was then finished with three coats of clear satin lacquer,the last coat applied over a new SINGER decal. Interior and bottom surfaces werefinished in matte brown.
All original hardware was in goodcondition and reinstalled. Includes original key.
BONUS: This case was made for a knee bar controller, and can certainlybe used as such. However, when found it held a 201-2 with a cleverly built footcontroller. Previous owner took a 194683 knee bar controller, added a customfoot pedal cut from mahogany, and a plug for the power cord. A receptacle inthe base can be wired to your machine, and accepts the plug using the originalknee bar hole. Voila! Plug-n-play foot controller! Controller leads have beenreplaced and unit tested. Works fine.
Very unique opportunity. Price does notadequately reflect the level of effort involved.
