You are going to love Ray's class and Ray, too. He is a fantastic teacher. Cathy

I'm facing up to it Nancy - I am planning to take Ray's class in the spring.... I want to fill in my gaps. I feel like I have a LOT to learn. Machines are collecting in my shop for spring. I just hope I have time to do them. Love them and re-home them I guess.

I have a Davis Model D that has the same type of friction motor and is a similar looking machine. The motor flips to store under the arm of the machine to put the lid on the case.

Joe Miller:
Have you thought about this company for your brush caps? They will make them custom for you if they don't already have them... http://www.phoenixelectric.com/CustomBrushHolders.html |
Charlee,
I have never heard of that company. Never run across it on any searches either. Thanks for the link, I just finished emailing them with the same photos I posted on the forum. Here's hoping. Joe |
Hope it works for you Joe! :)

Yay for our little 301s!! I do just love mine...dead on accurate, and the seam line is soooo straight! I just finished a queen sized top, and it came out to exactly the size the pattern said it would. And I sewed 85% of it on my 301. AWESOME!! |

My 1917 Western Electric has that same type of motor that swings around, plus that exact same wooden case. It was made by National and badged for W.E. I saw another identical machine at our guild's quilt show, and it had another name on it, but same machine & case. I think yours' is a slightly newer National badged Mansion. |

Here's another sad one:
