I had talked about getting a table for a 301 here http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-146170-1.htm
Well I went to get it, and also picked up her 301 in a case with attachments. I just couldn't let it stay there. Compared to the one I had this is a 10, and the one I had was about a 3. This one runs so smoothly, is beautiful. Look at the gold decals. Only thing wrong was the tire on the bobbin winder, so I switched it out, and boy talk about going to town when you put your foot on the juice. Can't wait to take her for a ride. Should do that tomorrow if everything goes as plans. Here are a few pictures. Well for some reason I can not load pictures---

I have a card table that looks exactly like yours. got it at auction in Minot. think I pd $105 for it. someone else decided they wanted it after it was almost sold and I wanted it really bad. can put my FW in there to sew without taking my 15-91 off the cabinet.

Lucky you, and it's for a long bed too. Wonderful find!! I've been looking for one for a long bed.

Your table and carrying case are identical to the ones I have for my machine in my avatar. They're great machines. Congrats.

I wonder why they don't make things like these any more? Things made to last. Wonder if my embroidery machines will still be around in 50 years? Probably not---But I love these vintage machines bunches.

No, they found out if things last forever...then they don't make money...Things are made today to last a certain no. of yrs...If you get past those planned yrs...your lucky.
We're a throw away world...When was the last time anyone had anything fixed versus just buying a new one.
