I bought one two years ago. A 1915 Singer model 15-30. I learned a lot cleaning and oiling it. I also learned about cabinet refinishing. I made some mistakes but it was all worthwhile. I taught myself to treadle by watching videos on the web. The machine originally cost $35 on Craigslist and its some of the best money I have ever spent. I have enjoyed many hours restoring and now sewing on it. I have made several small items like potholders and a lap sized quilt. Just watch and wait! The right one will come along!
