Red Eyes look so beautiful when all cleaned up. Great find. I know you are thrilled. I got my little 12k fiddle base treadle going today and was having a ball on it.
Enjoy your treadle!!

Oh WOW! My Mom had one of these back in the late 50's. I don't remember seeing it anymore after we moved when I was 4. :cry:

Congratulations on your new friend. I was fortunate to find one two weeks ago. Look forward to learning how to operate it. Had to get a new treadle belt first.

Have fun,
