I don't have any room left for another cabinet or treadle, yet I'm fighting the urge .....

Joe
Joe that's a really neat cabinet!! It hurts, doesn't it, when you want to save these cool old machines & cabinets and you have your own limitations. I know...I'm really there, but still have a couple of machines I am going to get in March. Lord willing!! :-)

If these turn out, I will post a photo and link to recipe that will be posted in recipe threads.
Deep frying isn't my favorite cooking method; so, hopefully I don't over cook the cuties.

Thanks ! No, I'm not a wood worker, but wish I was. This was the box that my Singer 66 Red eye came in. It has a beautiful custom box that was made for it now, so this was just waiting for another machine.

Oh my - that is different - all machined work - amazing. I wonder what that would cost to do in today's dollars - how much time to make something like that? amazing - this country has lost so much...........
