Steve, I went to look at a treadle machine recently that was being sold on eBay. The seller said to me, "When I told x I was selling it, he said you'd better take the machine out and have a look..." They had been using it as a TV cabinet and never even looked at the machine (which was rusty and broken). Then she said, my parents have got one that's in beautiful condition; I asked if they would sell theirs and she said no. They are using theirs as their TV cabinet as well and never want to sell it
