If anyone here within reasonable driving distance (??? from Bakersfield, very little is "reasonable" driving distance!! But hopefully I can do road trip to No or So CA within the next few weeks) has a Singer treadle they can part with for a reasonable price, please let me know. I can do restoration work if required....DH is a "wood guy". Thanks!!
I agree, prices lately have been way too high for stuff I see on Craig's list. I get better prices at garage sales but it takes more work as you have to drive around. Keep looking, one will fall in your lap! If you are ever in San Diego would love to meet you in person. I'll show you all the thrift stores....and there are alot of them.
