I have an original also, the craftmanship quality of the new one is rather crude when compared to the Singer

using the handcrank much better.

I would NOT put anything branded "Made in the People's Republic of China" :evil: on one of my Singers! UGH.
LOL... I wonder if now is the time to experiment with either purposefully cleaning off the decals, or painting over them. At least the HC works great. I bet the granddaughters don't care a bit... !!!
I wouldn't clean off those decals on the HC because it is part of the sewing machine HISTORY.

Purplefiend I love your HC. I love it on your Singer. I love it because it is a Frankenmachine! A mutt! and mutts are the sweetest dogs out there. Where did you buy that HC? I want one.
