    The Singer machine shown in this video appears to be very similar to a Singer Model 107W102 free-hand (hoop) monogramming-embroidery machine that I once owned and used to do free-hand embroidery of military insignia designs. Having abandoned the art, I donated this machine to an international goodwill organization to be shipped to a deserving nation. Today I have embarked in the world of digital embroidery using a computerized single needle (head) machine and have been studying the art-science of digitizing with computer software. My specialty is to reproduce historic military insignia designs from the First World War and others from later periods. Could this be a Singer Model 107W102 or similar model. My machine was made in 1929 I believe and was fully functioning at the time I donated it. Other than for routine oiling all I did was replace the original leather drive belt with a modern automotive drive belt made of composition rubber. This was a classic model from my understanding.
