The stands/ tops are my doing's. There my 3/4 size almost industrial's .. I have enough wood to do one more, but have two stands ready LOL out of nice wood . see my left leg doesn't bend. my treadle is with one leg, the left side has to be where the drawers hang on a normal cabinet, a 6 drawer is a real PITA.

If you really look that 237's treadle frame is a silver gray color, It doesn't show the dust anywhere close to what a Black one does
Now I notice that the 237's treadle isn't black. The original hand wheel on the 237 treadles just fine, its a bit heavier than most and a bit larger too. The local Singer dealer wants $15 for a treadle belt, don't know if its real leather or not.
