Oops! I may be wrong since I saw someone had another one that was a 401A, I believe

This machine sews like a dream. I have all the cams for it etc and would love to get it into working order for one of my granddaughters to have later on.
I made jeans and everything on that old work horse.
If anyone has one for sale or knows of one let me know please.

I found a treadle base left in my garage when tenants moved out. What I did was paint the base and then my son-in-law made a lovely oak top and screwed it on - now I have a neat little table and love it.

Wonderful bargains!!! If you don't want to put in a treadle machine onto the base, you could always make it into a table! :thumbup: I had two orphan treadle machine legs, and a friend of my stepfather's made a tabletop for it. I love it......so cute! :wink:
