Oh - and that last attachment is an underbraider, and it is all there. I love that double ended hemmer, have not seen one like that before.
Here is a video on how to use it - and notice that they use the quilting foot (without the guide) with the underbraider.

Yes, I know what those brackets are for inside the cover. Mine has them, and they hold the Knee Control. When I got my machine, the knee control was laying around the machine. Good thing! I never would have thought to look under that cover, and would never figured out how to make the machine go. Then I looked at the manual and it showed where to find the knee control. So I put it back there.
I love that knee control. No continual feeling with my toe to find a foot control.
So does that mean my machine was once a crank, or does it mean yours might have been an electric. I think mine cam from 1924, and is a Singer 128.

Congrats on what will be a sweet 201 when you're done and Happy Birthday! Not sure I would have bought the machine under those conditions. I really don't like going into someone's house, especially a stranger's, when they're not home.
The case being the same probably means Singer built one case no matter which combination of features a machine had, the only exception being whether they installed a knee control or not. Sometimes it works out cheaper and easier to keep everything the same instead of having multiple lines depending on the features.

It's funny, The 201-3 is the most common here, I have trouble finding the potted motors. In all this time, I've only had 2 of them come across my bench. One 15-91 and one 201-2. Just like Red Eyes. I've only ever seen one in person.

That's what I said to DH. "It was a rescue, wasn't it?"

I suspect Rodney's right in that the cases were all made the same at the time.
You know, I'd been thinking that someone was sure to be home - when we arrived there were lights on in the basement. I was really uncomfortable too. I feel weird enough when one of my computer clients leaves me at their house to step out to grab the kids or something. I'm not sure why I did it, unless the machine was calling to me.
