This is incredibly awesome and kind of you. I spent part of the day taking the cabinet apart (couldn't salvage much beyond the top and some of the hardware). I've yet to dig into the machine itself, but I spent a lot of time learning about how to clean and oil my sister's treadles (a Singer "Sphinx" that uses shuttles and a more modern "Red Eye" that takes regular bobbins).
Speaking of red eye, I've got a possible lead on an electrified one that's quite affordable. The madness begins!
