Need items for treadle machines
Hi all,
I need to get some items for a couple of my treadle machines. I recall time and again folks pointing to 'Cathy ?sp'. Would someone, or Cathy herself, point me to her. I'd like to she if she can help me out.
Many thanks,
d

Aw, thanks Charlee. These old machines are amazing.
Yesterday I walked away from a machine with very good lotus decaling. Monday I walked away from a 28 La Vincendora. Originally I had thought we could convert the La V to a handcrank but then realized it most likely doesn't have a motor boss. That would mean another (did I say "another" outloud?) machine head to go with the 28 Tiffany. But they both sure would look mighty fine sitting in display boxes handcrafted by dh. (Hun, I gotta spin this to make it sound like I'm doing it for him :-)
best,
d
