    I'm very pleased with this machine. The pictures in the listing were poor, and even made it look like some parts were missing - but it appears to be all here except a foot. The box is missing parts and there is no cover.

    Very nice! Looks to be in great condition other than the missing parts.

    Default My Singer 24

    Here is a picture of my Singer 24 that came in a treadle cabinet. I am having trouble figuring out how to thread this machine. We are also working on getting the belt at the right tension for the treadle to work.
