It was really neat how I got the base. I currently have 9 treadles, and 19 machines ;)
Please send me a Private Message if you have a Davis, or a machine without feed dogs.
Thank you

But if I get this free one running, I will feel really good.
By the way, what is OSMGal? Hope it is good.
I used to hang out with my Dad in the garage. He used to drive stock cars in the days until he broke his back. But then he managed the local race track so I could hang out in the pits.

Thanks! Glad to hear it is okay. I was watching one on ebay, but wasn't able to get it.
That would be cool to have a sewing session! Currently I'm making a Bargello on my Class 15 clone, my Riccar.

Before I forget the tutorial on the cleaning will be done this week!! It takes a while to clean a machine and make sure you do not miss anything so thats whats slowing me down that and staying busy around here finishing up these cars.

I also joined a yahoo group for Singer Attachments...seems to be quite informative, and has lots of photos!

I have bought from April1930s on Ebay. Her prices are reasonable and she is really very friendly.
