I have an old Singer too, mine belonged to my sister in law's grandmother, are you following this soap opera? It's a '30s vintage electric in a cabinet, I really like the extra space the fold out wing provides for working with a kilt. I just replaced the belt after the old one shredded, it works much better now. Like others have said, it has no reverse or zigzag, I borrowed newer machines to bartack my Xkilts.
