Got a few pics of my New Treadle machine. She was seized when DH found her at a yard sale and he got her moving again. Now he is working diligently on restoring her cabinet. Seems the previous owner made a few "homemade" remedies for her and we are trying to bring it back. It came with a drawer full of attachments and feet.

LOL no name yet and we have only been working on the cabinet so far. She does have her belt and no motor or wiring. It is getting cold here soon and want to finish the cabinet so we can move her into the house.

Come to think of it maybe I will let DH name her, he certainly has named plenty of cars in his day hahaha
