Sure, right there in the middle. You don't see it?

They're full sized. For some reason they just look small. The models ending in MG are cast magnesium and are comparable to a Singer 99 in weight. Roughly 25 lbs in the case as compared to 40 or so for other full size machines.
Mine was a nice machine. I gave it to a good friend of ours who expressed an interest in it.

Mine is so cool - it still has dealer tags on it and has a new look to it. The machine is surprisingly light weight but the case weighs a ton. The hand wheel turns backwards.

When has anyone ever seen one of these sell for $2500 to $3000? Another person smoking banana peels.

and this poor thing... $75? More like .75. What did they do to this poor thing?

this is from an ebay listing on a Featherweight with the case and a few accessories - seller does admit they don't know anything about it. . .

[TD="class: qaCol"] Q: Is there a bobbin case in the machine?
A: There isn't a specific case, but there are places to keep them in the main case.
