This is the one of the slightly later Singer, but yes it is pretty much the same.

The 'professional' has to have a machine that zz's and I'm not crazy about those.

Unfortunately at that price, they will have to take it along with them . . . The table is gorgeous though; wonder if they would take $100 for it |
sure the reverse works on that machine and not all the time...

Very sad :( I noticed it is in BRAINtree, MA. Whoever made that certainly wasn't using their brain, for sure!

http://boston.craigslist.org/sob/atq/3874216461.html We have a Singer base (metal part only of a treadle) that we use as a side table in our camping trailer. I've found the footpedal is a great location for our pet food dishes - keeps the dishes out of our foot path in the cramped quarters. I could see this one used that way with a couple of nice, flowing plants on top and small pet food containers stored in the drawers. Now, don't everyone thrash me as I exit........... :) |
I don't have a problem with the bases being reused as tables as long as a machine wasn't trashed just to make it. Some are very nice, with shaped marble tops. The sadness is because the base is an uncommon brand and it's been irreversibly cut down.

BTW - I must say that it is one of the best looking mods I have seen. |
