Our neighbor claimed it never worked, so threw her out. He was threading her incorrectly... his loss, my gain. (Her name is Betty, after the aunt who gave it to him.) Her date is November 1945, and I thinks she was made in Elizabethport. Your cabinet is a Model number 40 according to http://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/40_cab.html And Betty works like a charm. So glad you rescued Sue!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10544757598004565474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-10061485378080127072017-06-27T14:32:21.946-04:002017-06-27T14:32:21.946-04:00Singer Sue is a real beauty!Singer Sue is a real beauty!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887041472873652880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-88955243454855265182017-06-27T13:08:28.473-04:002017-06-27T13:08:28.473-04:00Absolutely wonderful!

I don't think you can convert that one to a hand crank, because of how the motor is attached (like my Singer 201's). I can't convert the 201's for that reason. Cute machine either way. Come to the MI TOGA and I'll give you a machine you can convert to a hand crank. I have WAY more than 16 machines, and am trying to find new homes for some of them.
