Made this bushing for my old Singer 201 sewing machine. It is the go between the motor and drive shaft. The balance wheel (hand wheel) spins on it when winding the bobbin thread. Then the clutch is tightened up with the motion nut and it becomes all one unit. My old one was broke from me beating on it because it was bent from the machine being dropped. Ebay special that was cheap. So I took a few hours and made the part and she works great. Last pic is sewing thru 4 layers of .062 thick leather. My other machine would only do 2 layers. Another machine from the dead...Bob
