I might keep it for a while but I just cant get into the e-machines that much. Now there is a few that are on my "wishlist" and the 222K is on that list, along with a 500A, 301, 401 and a Hot Pink Morse. But the Morse is an external motor so it can be converted into treadle. :mrgreen:
I really like the early sewing machines from around 1870-1930's
to me they are a good representation of the industrial revolution. And if it weren't for the early machines (1840's-1900's) we would not have the patent laws we have today. They were known as the "Machine Wars" and examples from that era are taught even to this day in law school.
But if I find a real nice super mint non Singer treadle somewhere and they want to trade well I cant be held responsible........:lol: :lol:
