I was worried about the irons and the wheels. Never designed for that stress.

those aren't real tables, singer never made irons like that. though it does look like the bentwood case tops are real singers.

BTW - I don't recall Singer ever making a treadle that took a bentwood top. Early ones are coffin top, and later are fold down models.

I have a lotus 66-1 that we picked up off the street in Germany and it has the original bent wood top complete with key. It was made in Wurttenberg. I have a pic somewhere of it.

So enjoy the fun! I'd so no machines/cabinets where harmed in the making LOL!!

Glen, was yours a "convertible" type where you could pull the whole case out of the base?
