I wonder why the hand crank with the treadle mechanism. Beautiful cabinet and machine

Looks like a Singer 27 to me.

The hand crank can be used to do slow deliberate work. Sometimes the treadle power is too much.

I saw the photos and just went "WOW". Beautiful machine and gorgeous cabinet. The left side has drawers all the way down. The price didn't seem too out of line to me, especially with some I've seen that were almost that much that were not in a cabinet or look anywhere near as good as this machine. If I wouldn't kick myself for spending the money on it and I had a place to put it to show it off, I'd run to Tulsa and bring it home. Guess I'll be good and keep saving for that new fridge...
