      Hi Mike @@michaelbean739 Unfortunately no I haven't made a video on the Singer 115. The 115 was made oly in the US and Canada and therefore almost impossible to find in Europe.

    I wish you would’ve showed how to run the sewing string and how to put the needle in something that simple with all the information you give would’ve been nice

      Hi Eric thank you so much for your comment. I had plans to film just that, as that is the way I film the machines on my channel = the basics stuff of every machine I can get my hands on. Unfortunately I was not able to film the basics with this machine due to health issues. I hope I can make the tutorial in the near future. I have written the script, so now I just have to film and edit it…

    So you have any info on a 78SV3 G9560515? The serial number says it was in a batch in 9/20/1922 of 1000 machines. But that is all I have found.

      Hi, I saw yhe pictures on the Vintage Industrial sewing machines group on FB. Great find!
      I have a Singer 78-1 but I think the 78-1 and 78-3 are very similar. Looking at the pictures on that FB-page it seems your sewing bed in shorter on the left side. Is that correct?
      The letters S stand for Special Variety. Basically Singer made changes in the design of that machine to accommodate the wishes of a client.As far as I understand SV is sort of a custom made machine, a variation on the 78-3.
      There is no way of knowing what Singer did to change it from an ordinary 73-3 to your 78SV3.
      But: All model 78 were built in the US (Elisabethport).
      I hope this answers your question.
      Enjoy your amazing machine!

    Where can I get parts for my singer 78-2

      Hi CT. Thank you so much for watching.
      Long answer: Singer used many part for different models. Like the tension unit from the 78 is the same as for the more common class 31-models. Every part has a Simanco part number. Write down the part number which has to be replaced, or lookup a missing part number from the catalog/ parts manual. Then simply go to Google and type Singer + part number, or try Simanco + part number.
      The Singer 78 is a rare machine. Not every part is available! But if the part was used on a more common machine you might be lucky.
      Good luck!

      Hi from The Netherlands.
      There are a few vendors for old vintage sewing machine parts in the USA. Google can help.
      Also Niels from Naaimachines Vintage & Antiques in The Netherlands.
      You might want to join the Vintage Industrial Sewing Machine group on Facebook. That is an international group of sewing machine enthousiast, working with industrial machine.
      Good luck!
