John, You have a wonderful setup with that Bernina. I also like the furniture you made and your quilts. Very nice projects and thanks for sharing!

I have converted a Singer 328K to treadle, but I bet it doesn't produce as nice a decorative stitch as your Bernina.
My Singer 328 is a bit of a workout to treadle since the belt hits one spot of metal by the bobbin winder area. I don't wish to deface the machine to fix this problem; so, I just get an extra workout.
