I found a nice singer 15-91 for $100. It is not a belt drive. I’m looking to make a wraptor with it. What do you think? Thanks

Singer 15-91

Good choice if not buying an expensive industrial. $100 seems a little steep.
And our resident 15-91 expert, [mention]jhunter13 [/mention] should be along shortly to give you more info.

I have two Singer 15-91s. I consider it the best domestic machine for heavy sewing. I spent $20 on one and $30 for the other.
I have more than a few sewing videos on my Youtube channel.

I see your profile shows NJ. I am right across the border in Lehigh Valley. I have 2 15-91’s also. One for $40 and one for $50.

For sale antique singer sewing machine inside a table. Probably from the 1930 or 1940s. The light works but I am not sure if the sewing machine works.

Hey neighbor. I saw that one before. When I got to, “the light works but not sure about the machine”, that’s when I move on. I have one on the way. I paid $100 plus $40 shipping but it is in mint condition and in a travel case which I wanted as well. Should be here by Wednesday.I see your profile shows NJ.

Congrats! There is an owners manual and service manual online somewhere (pdf download).
Have fun with it!

Thanks I appreciate that. I don’t know the first thing about sewing. There is a sewing shop near me that has classes for $15. I’m going to go hang out with the old ladies one night and learn how to use it lol.
Thanks. That was very helpful.
I think someone needs to make us some Saddle Hunter shirts that say, Real hunters own sewing machines!
