key words - it has been sitting for many years - that scares me... my guess you will have a rewiring problem if nothing else... obviously this one has not been serviced lately. IMHO not worth a bucket of money.

The pics make this one. The price is whacked out, but the pic of the accessories sure makes you look twice at the machine... I do like the little chest though.

Oh my ... I would consider that one if the price was a bit lower. That particular treadle is the cast iron version .. I've only ever seen the "newer" version in tubular steel. The chest is a great piece too .. I also collect sewing boxes.

My guess is they last used it about the same time they laid that carpet.
