1930 vintage BSM handcrank sewing machine

this handcrank sewing machine was made in england. it can be hooked up to a treadle but was used mainly with the supplied handcrank. it sews very nicely as you can see in the preceding video about it. I got it because of the abilitity to reverse it when sewing with the flip of a lever.

 

I just got done hemming up some shorts and it works great on 4 and sometimes 5 layers of denim. I really do like how it works.
