Call or email Johnny first before stopping by. He works on the machines in his workshop and he may not be there. He has all kinds of machines. That's where I got my 3 machines -- 1927 Singer hand crank, 1940 Featherweight 221, and a National Sewing Machine (sold through Montgomery Ward) treadle. His wife teaches quilting in the Ocala and Trenton areas. Sometimes they're in Trenton on Saturdays when they're not at a show/festival.

I also have a 1936. From what I understand, they didn't have the dial until later ('38 or '39?) It is tricky to adjust the tension without the dial.
