Something else I forgot yesterday. The OLD machines had to be user friendly. People couldn't take them into the shop at the drop of a hat, like we have to with the new more $$ machines. My treadle, never was taken to the Dr's. The sewers had to take care of any problems them self. Life and sewing was not for the weak. Now when my "Iron Queen" needs something, I take care of it. My new machines have to go into the Dr's and that always turns into $$$$'s. And that is $ I could use on fabric lol :thumbup:
