Packing a sewing machine


A run of the mill Singer 99, getting ready for packing. Begin by padding the cavity under the machine (to help hold and cushion the machine should it try to get loose from the base) and verifying that the machine is firmly tightened onto its hinges, the hinges are correctly bolted to the base, and the swivel-clip is tightened down holding the machine onto the base. This isn't enough to keep the machine in place, but it will work with the rest of the packaging to keep everything in place.
