    It does have the "Make Offer" button. That sure is a sweet little machine! I would love to have it. It's my favorite color!

    Or you could go for this one - it's half the price - but a lot less machine! (It's kind of cute, just very pricey!) It has free shipping. too.

    I'm going to measure my Honeymoon and find a plastic storage box that size and fill with kerosene. if it removes the gunkyjunk inside the machine, that ought to save me the trouble of taking all the pieces apart.------treadle machine.

    OMG! I would sell one of the kids for this... My dad used to have a Zundapp dirt bike when I was a little girl, but stopped riding harescranble after my sister came along. He kept it for years after that...until I got caught riding it, also harescramble, when I was 15. (It was pretty hard to hide-I slid it into a tree and broke a few ribs.)

    I dunno about the price--that's a lot of thrift store sewing machines--but this monster is just too cool for words.

    I have a question about my Singer 401A presser feet. Some of the additional feet I received with the machine have rust on them. Can I clean them and if I can, how should I clean them? Thanks for all your help. You guys ROCK!!

    I wipe mine down with kerosene. Then I brush them off with a scotch brite pad. To finish, I use the mothers mag polish on them to make it all shiny!
