This is my first attempt at attaching pictures and I really wanted to put it into the Vintage Section but can't figure that out.
The first picture is my treadle that I acquired in 1983 or '84.

Treadle

Featherweight, 1959

Think this one is a 128

A 27K Sphinx, needs lots of work

Thank you spartan, I'm going to try to use Billy's tutorial to clean the Sphinx up, have ordered the missing bobbin cover and will start soon. Lots of work before I do the "after" pix.

This is another of my lovelies.

Since nobody else posted it, here is the link for you to add your pics to the 'Vintage' area. To get there without the link, go to 'home' at the top of this page, then at the bottom you will find 'vintage sewing machine shop'. That's where this is
