I put in a bid on a featherweight -what will I do with my Janome 720? and I made an offer on an electric Red Eye 66? What I really want to do is to get one to take apart clean it and then I can say it's mine!!! I love to take things apart just to see how they work. There doesn't seem to be alot of "works" underneath the treadles. Would it be possible to motorize a treadle? and if so, would it be possible to get a tutorial on it? I know, I know, wheels are turning and I getting into more trouble. it's late, I'm going to sleep--probably dream about all the trouble I'm getting myself in. Anne
