Singer Style-O-Matic 328: No Longer For Sale

I have 3 sewing machines that do virtually the same things. Time to cull the herd. This vintage workhorse is SOLD. The buttonholer is still available for $10 (comes with the correct throat plate cover for straight shank vertical feed machines).

Lovely vintage sewing machine. In extremely good shape for its age. Absolutely no rust. Runs strong. It is clean, lubed and oiled. Ready for a new home. For those of you new to sewing or who are looking for a sturdy well built machine that will last forever, this is for you. These older Singers are incredibly well built. Virtually indestructible. Very easy to thread, use and maintain. This machine is all metal...through and through. No plastic parts to crack, break or yellow. The 328 has the following features: 

straight stitch
zig-zag
reverse
9 pattern cams for decorative stitching (one is loaded in the machine)
3 needle positions
2 needle stitching
easy threading
easy bobbin winding
easy to oil

You will receive everything shown except for the buttonholer which is available for an additional $10. The machine comes with one bobbin and a multi-purpose foot. It takes standard Singer bobbins and accessories for straight shanked machines which are readily available. Can easily be mounted into a Singer cabinet or used as is, on a table or desk. The foot pedal and cord are in pristine condition.

The buttonholer includes the correct throat plate cover for use with this vertical feed machine. It includes all of the 5 buttonhole templates (one is loaded in the buttonholer). I can email PDF copies of the manuals for both the 328 machine and the buttonholer.

J-Made 4 Harness Loom (no longer) For Sale.

On the way to a new home in Idaho. :-)

Now that I possess three 4 harness floor looms, it is time to cull the herd. My 4 Harness J-Made Conversion is available. This loom was built in the 70's by a fellow in Portland, Oregon. He is still around but no longer builds looms. I think he's now into building yachts or some such. I was able to track him down and he provided the original assembly documents. This is a well built loom which can do everything that more expensive floor looms can. The top half is a table loom with approx. 30" weaving width. The bottom half is the floor loom conversion stand which has 6 treadles and lamms. The 2 parts clamp securely together, but are easy to separate for transport. We brought it home in my husband's Subaru WRX Wagon. The treadle stand was bungeed to the roof while the loom rode inside the vehicle. The loom comes with a 27" 12 dent reed. I will include a couple of stick shuttles, 3 weaving books and the above mentioned documentation which includes detailed schematics and assembly instructions. Possible delivery in the Tacoma area. Otherwise must be picked up.

Note: I will consider bartering for a Bernina 830 or 730 Record sewing machine in very good condition.
