Hope this helps?

Don't you just love the things we learn from each other?
Thanks,

Not sure if it still comes with SanDisk cards but that's where I got it some years ago. It's a tiny program so can sit on your HDD not taking up any space.

I love this board. Learn about so much that I had no clue about. Rescue Pro sounds like a great deal. Will be checking it out.

Which is why I'm asking, because I'm curious to find out if it could be used in a treadle.

Billy, like Miz Johnny said we will play nice while you are away -- we always do!
I hope you are well enough to get your place cleaned up -- also, glad you came through it all ok for the most part!

Hey Denise PM me and I can walk you through it, the 66 is the one machine I know like the back of my hand and I can put one together in my sleep.
And I have all of the debris cleaned up and and I ended up building a huge fire in the backyard getting rid of a lot of the mess. My neighbor and I got both of our homes back to where they were before the storms.
That is the good..........now the bad. :(
My carport area was totaled and when the section of the tree hit it it knocked a lot off the walls only a couple of machines were damaged, but nothing that can be repaired easily. And I had some of my hand wheels sitting on a shelf and they flew off and hit a machine that was sitting quite a ways from them. So the hit was really violent to say the least. But I am going out there today and I am going to get some machines serviced and try to get my Studio back together on the inside.

Geeze, Billy sounds like you guys really got hit. I haven't been watching the news the last couple days - was it a tornado or hail storm or just a fierce storm? I'd fix you something good to eat while you guys repair things if I were closer! Good thing it is your machines as you are the expert fixer upper!

I turned the handwheel several times, cleaned up the extra oil, and replaced the bobbin carrier and all the other parts. When I tried her out, she sewed about 100% better!! I think she had probably sat for a long time and her joints just needed lubricating! :-)
