Billy, thx for sharing (again). Something so lovely about those machines in the bookcase like that.

I am moving the table into my sunroom and will be adding a section to the wall unit. I will be able to hold another 9 machines in it. I am really running out of room for machines that I have earmarked for use in the studio. And I have two more treadles to set up in my hallway my 1870's FC Henderson and a W&W 9.

Sounds like it's time to knock out a wall and make room for the machines. lol Mary

Actually I am adding onto my studio just so I can move my quilting to another area and then the part that I have now will be used to service the machines and hold all of my parts. I am adding on another 1200 sqft and it will be an upstairs part to house my collection and memorabilia.

But out of all of the machines I have only 2 are electric, and the newest is from 1963.

wow sounds like it will be really nice. My husband and I moved a 100 yr old house 23 years ago. and are almost done redoing it. Seems like your never done. Just like the treadles. Your 1963 would look nice next to my 1966 pontiac ventura. wish it was up and going still. Mary

My Mom had a 1966 Bonneville that my Dad bought her brand new. it was a tri power car and they traded it for a new 73 Dodge Charger. We would have had an R/T 440 4 speed car but my mom said she wasnt going to drive a stick. So it ended up a 400/auto with the slapstick. Still was a fast car but wasnt an R/T......
