What a fantastic find you made. Looks like she just needs a little elbow grease.

Your machine looks like mine does. When I bought it, there was a 220 volt motor on it. I suspect it had been a hand crank machine, due to the fact that the bentwood top
fits on just fine, without removing the hand crank. I decided it would be better as a hand crank machine, so my 201K-4 machine donated her hand crank. I like to treadle the 201k, easier on my arm.

I take the 99K to TreadleOn Gatherings(TOGA) for sewing swap blocks and such.

Very nice find! Hand cranks are fairly rare over in the US, though I've never figured out exactly why.

She'll clean up beautifully!
