I learned to sew on a Featherweight in a table like that - wonderful set up! Enough room in front and to the right side of the machine for pins, scissors, ripper; good room to the left and back for projects. I have a Featherweight but my sister has my Mom's machine and table :-( Someday maybe I'll find a great bargain on a table.

Card Table for a Singer Machine - how unique!!

If I remember correctly that is the kind of table that was made for the featherweights. I looks like a card table with the insert section for the FW.

I just measured mine and the front edge of the machine is 6-3/4" from the front edge of the table. I also measured from the needle to the front edge of the table and it's 9-1/2". Hope this helps you! I haven't had any issues with this part of the table being too deep for me. I'm short and have short arms but it doesn't seem to be a problem. I just bought the acrylic extension table for my Bernina 440 and I measured that and it's 6". I think most of the tables for any machine are probably about 6".

Your table might be for the 301 and 400 series machines.

Yes, it is made for the Featherweight. It is handy for other purposes as well, such as a card table or luncheon table. It is very handy and easy to store when not in use as it folds up.

I found my FW table at a rummage sale for a mere $5! It is
sturdy and not wobbly at all.
Here's a picture of my Featherweight cardtable.

My mother had a card table that was made by Singer for her machine. It worked great, and when not in use for sewing it doubled as an extra table for use when we had company or if "we" kids needed an extra craft table.

I have this table-it has cutout for singer slant needle=I gave my machine to my neice and had a friend re-do the table for my new Husquavarna (sp?) to fit down into. Love the table, but wish I had the 301 back.

Yes I have one and I'm using it now. I got it at a yard sale the lady didn't want it anymore so she just gave it to me. It need to be refinished so my hubby did that. It is a great table.
