There are numerous things to be asked on this subject but I can tell you this. Most of us that own Vintage machines will tell you our first one was something we were not looking for it just found us and we were bit by the bug.
I own all sorts of machines treadle powered are my most desired and used models but I have started getting into collecting the electrics like my 1963 Kenmore model 43, a 1962 Singer 500A, and my earliest is a 1926 Singer 128. But they all found me I didnt go looking for them.
This is one of those deals that if it feels good then do it!!

what power source do I want to use?? I do not want a hand crank if thats what you mean. I do want something in a neat color. I dont want cams. I dont know where to begin, it looks like a fun addiction!
