Default What is this?

This is the only pic I have. What does it look like? Maybe a featherweight in a table???

It's not a Featherweight buy any means. It looks like a full size machine like a 66. A 99 is a 3/4 size machine. 66's are very common. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I think the decals are throwing me off. I'm thinking a 201 possibly.

I was wondering about it being a 201 because of the spool peg being in the middle of the metal part on top.
But what - # would be?

Could be a 201. Isn't the simplest way to find out to ask the person for a photo of the front:>

Yep, I've asked for additional pics, but as yet, have not received any.

I'm thinking it's a 201-3 because the motor is not 'potted' and the light is located on the backside.

Hi, that's a 201-3.

People like those because you get the smoothness of a 201, but it's easier to convert to treadle than a 201-2 (potted motor).
