Actually, I just finished spraying the treadle base and mechanism with Triflow. Wiped it down and it does not look bad at all. Best of all, the wheels turn. I am thinking that poor wood cabinet "protected" the sewing machine head and irons from the worst of the weather. I also got the presser foot loosened up and functioning. It now feeds like it should. I was able to remove the shuttle, I was afraid it was rusted in, but after the Triflow treatment it came out. The last needle that was used with the machine is still in place and also fairly good. At least it is there. Yep, looks like a trip to the hardware store for more clamps. That's OK. I love tools.
