Perry,
That would most likely be a Singer 101. It was the first dedicated electric motor sewing machine Singer made. The motor built into the machine is referred to as a "potted" motor. That's cos the motor cover resembles a pot.
In all of Singers history they only made three models with the potted motor.
The Model 101, Model 15-91, and the Model 201-2. I have a 201-2 in a cabinet and it is a sweeeeeet sewing machine.
These machines are all iron and steel. There is no fiber or plastic gears in them I know of. The motors drive a gear on a shaft that drives the big gear attached to the hand wheel. Very responsive and quiet usually.
I'm working on a denim quilt and when I'm done I'll be using the 201 to quilt it.
I'd love to see the pics of yours.
.......... Oh geeze, I just made a liar out of myself.
