Default American Treadle

I found this on Craig's list recently. It's beautiful and I want it but I don't have the extra money or space right now. I thought I would share it here. (post id: 4239842368)

That's a pretty early machine. Well worth the $75 to me.

That's so funny. I bought that machine on Dec 24, 2013. I just checked he still has the ad running. Here is my posting from when I first bought it. It's mahogany. It's an American B-H & O #1 machine.

With the holidays, I've only had a chance to clean & wax the wood cabinet. Here are 2 pics of how nice it cleaned up. The irons and the machine head are next. Hoping to get to that next week.
