A lovely accessible machine; sew as slow as you want! (It's hand crank operated). Cleaned up September 2019, just waiting on delivery of some new needles to make it operational. Further cleaning up and possibly a bobbin winder tyre replacement in the near future. | A lovely accessible machine; sew as slow as you want! (It's hand crank operated).

This machine does not use 'standard' 15x needles and those won't fit, since the shank is too wide. Instead it is compatible with needles used in the "Singer 12 New Family Sewing Machine" type, 'Singer 12x' is a good search term to find compatible ones on eBay. | This machine does not use 'standard' 15x needles and those won't fit, since the shank is too wide.

We <s>have</s> had an electric pedal operated Toyota 2260. It appears to not be operational anymore? Last update on it was someone tried to fix it with parts from another machine but it's entirely non-working now. | We <s>have</s> had an electric pedal operated Toyota 2260.
