Glad you were able to get the machine you learned to sew on.
According to
Table/cabinet interchangeability??? generic Singer to Pfaff 360 It is mentioned that the 130 will fit into the Singer cabinet or case for flat bed machines. If you find an empty cabinet or case you will have to measure the hinge pin spacing and size of the pins to be sure it fits. I picked up a simple cabinet and while the spacing was correct, the pins were too large to fit the Singers and Japanese machines. I've heard of some that will file the pins to fit. Some Montgomery Wards machines have same spacing but it is offset from end of machine so needed a piece to work with a lot of cabinets. A lot of Kenmore machines have more squarish corners, the cabinets
may work but will have a space that things will fall into.
There are lots of options out there.
