Cathy, I will try the needles you gave me! If those needles work, I want to buy more! I want to use this treadle! I am going to get the cabinet all cleaned up and bring it in the house. This machine drops its feed dogs and has a reverse!
I looked at the bobbin winder and the problem with it is that before the tire contacts the HW it hits the thumb screw that is part of the stitch regulator. I will try adjusting the bobbin winder - move it out slightly, but if I can't fix it I will bring it to you! It doesn't appear to be bent? The bobbin winder tire is shot, though, I am not even sure it is the correct tire for this machine. I don't have a tire in the size this machine takes - it is a fairly large tire? Getting that part may be a problem?
