Where did she find it?

Yea, where did she find something like that, so cheap. I want one of those too. I just recently got my first Featherweight and I love it. It was made in 1952. :thumbup:

She found them at a auction in a little town near me.She said they had a lot of them.Apparently found in a old warehouse.Some of them were locked up and wouldn't work,so they let her try them out and find a good one.I don't think they knew what they had.It isn't a old one it says2010 right on it. It has the Singer name on it also.It could be a reproduction,but if it is it's sure a good one

When I saw the post title that said "I got one" I knew exactly what this was going to be. Congratulations on the FW. Lucky you.

WOW....you got a real good deal on that machine. I was at the flea market this summer and someone was selling a feather weight for $50.00 that was in mint condition. I wanted to buy it but I didn't have enough cash to buy it. I am hoping to find one this summer at the flea market.

Sorry, I didn't realize they still made Featherweights of any kind in 2010.

Could it be the new Singer 118 Featherweight?

Singer has reused the name "featherweight", obviously to cash in on their earlier success. But this one looks nothing like the older machines. I hope it wasn't this one.
