Julie,

A 128 is a 3/4 sized machine and will not fit in a standard full sized treadle cabinet. Both the bed size and hinge pin spacing is different than the standard.

The other is also a Singer...all black 128. Not sure I really want to keep this one. I wanted a machine for my treadle, this one is electric. Just not familiar enough with it to know if its worth keeping. Got both for
$150. Thinking I may have some 'buyer's remorse' on this one.

Need some ideas about whether to keep the 128 or not. I really wanted an electric to fit into my treadle that could be converted to a treadle.

What do I do now?

Thanks,
julie
