Miriam, I really don't know if it will sew or not. If it does the stitches will be eratic I would think. I would like to see a pic of your Vindex

Glen, I am really challenged with shrinking the pictures to fit on this new set up... It is missing the stitch regulator and something is dangling down under - wwwaaaaaahhhhhhhhh I tried sending the lastest pics to Charlee - she shrunk them now I am having trouble figuring out where they went...

Default Brunswick Before Restoration

For those of you that don't remember the before pics of the Brunswick, I though I would show the cabinet again.

Yeah, $800 seems high for just the irons. I'm sure someone has been looking for a treadle for one of their machine heads. Hopeful this one finds its home.

A badged machine; more than likely exactly the same as the machines badged "Precision". I have yet to have one of those machines that didn't sew well.

I actually like this one, and would probably use it. . . .

Too bad about that one. I have a 3/4 sized Gritzner treadle, and absolutely love it.
