    I have a featherweight too and that part is not standard equipment on a featherweight. I'm no help as I've not seen it before. A previous owner must have added it for some good reason???

    Looks like a seam guide to me. It is hard to see the shape. Better pic might help?

    Can you show a picture from another angle? It doesn't look like anything I recognize the way it is displayed.
