What a smart handyman you have. Maybe he figures he can help you add on to the house to hold all the goodies... LOL
I love those White machines. If you want you can put a steering wheel spinner knob (also known as suicide knob) on it and hand crank it. Those machines turn so free - I can see why you might want to treadle it, too. Some times you just do things for fun.

Madamekelly, you have obviously been a very, very good woman this year and earned a fabulous reward for your behavior. I didn't think I was much interested in vintage machines other than Singer, until you posted this picture, and now I want to learn more about the White machines and look at lots of pictures. I think your cabinet is gorgeous.
Congratulations on your lovely present, I hope you will post pictures in the new year once you've had the opportunity to clean him/her up.

Madamekelly,
You were gifted with a lovely White Rotary, you must have been very,very good.
I thought I only wanted to use vintage Singer machines, that is until I met Miss Susie, the 1917 White Rotary treadle. It has become one of my favorite machines.
