On a SM, note: Can one external motor on a vintage e machine be subbed for another? I really don't see how anyone is going to able to get at the connectors on the cord of the Universal and there isn't enough good cord left to splice a new section. I so want to sew on that machine.
Miriam, my children weighed from over 9 pounds down to 5 and a half pounds. They all grew up to be about the same size, though my shortest baby girl is now over 5'10".
I always thought the external motors were the same. Although the external motor on my Singer 201 was for European usage; didn't work here when plugged in, but looked the same as any of my other motors.
My daughter was always 99% in weight and height as a young kid. Doctor told us that she will most likely be very tall, 5'10"ish. She is only 5"2".
