Wow. I really appreciate all the input. You can tell you all have experience with newbies. I try to search for answers first to not clutter up the Board.
Thanks Rodney for the offer. Woodworking should be ok as we get a better understanding of the end goal.
I did go over to the links shared and the house today shows it! I barely got supper in on time! My biggest marvel is machines from one hundred years ago can still sometimes use the same needles as modern machines. The treadle is a perfect simple machine and wonder why it is not used as an example in grade school science on simple machines. Amazing!
Again, thank you, All.
