The early adjustable ruffler is the main thing I was interested in here, so I cleaned it first.
Note the arm in the front that is moved in these two pictures. That is the adjustment from one extreme to the other It uses the interaction of the stub on the back of the arm to control how much movement the slide makes.

From the other side. (I am still not sure what the little arm on this side is for. It does not seem to interact with anything)

The bottom showing the patent dates... Note how early they begin... This mechanism was designed that early. (earliest is Dec 2 62, the newest is Jan 21 73)
