I had to. I responded. Likely nothing will happen, but what the heck.

Said I had to have it, I've been looking for a FW with a potted motor forever!!

Kidding.

"Uh… that's a 15-91 like it says on the Original user's manual…

Not even CLOSE to being a featherweight. A featherweight is a 1/2 sized machine, weighs 11 pounds, has a flip up extension to the left of the needle, has a belted motor, and is made primarily of aluminum. They also were only produced starting in 1937.

A 15-91 is a full sized machine, weighs about 30 pounds, has no extension, has no belt for the motor, and is made of cast iron."
