1. Left (back) tension control knob. (actually on left side of face plate, yes) 2. Scroll faceplate. (Yes) 3. Mimimal gold decals on front and bed. . . (not sure which pattern they were, but like filigre or triplets style) (Yes, and Yes) 4. Silver handwheel, (I THINK it was solid, but not sure if it was solid or spoke). (Yes mine is spoked) 5. Some part of the stitch regulator very shiny silver, (not sure if it was the plate or the lever/knob on it) (Yes) Brenda Oh and the bobbin was not a shuttle it was round and it had a motor and belt and was in a treadle cabinet, which must have been from her original machine which I don't remember.

There is a neat Red Eye in a plain cabinet on the Wichita CL for $100 OBO. Looks like the decals are in pretty good shape, missing the slide plate, of course, lol.

I am going to look at a treadle today, it has a 1904 Standard machine. I have tried to find info. about it online, no luck. Can anyone tell me anything about it?
The cabinet has been painted, so it needs to be stripped and refinished whick I think I can handle. But I want to be able to sew on this, so I need to know if bobbins/needles are still available to find. The machine comes with an instruction manual and attachments. If anyone can give me any info. it would be greatly appreciated! |

Thanks for replying so quickly! The seller only wants $35.00 for it so I am picking it up this afternoon and then will post photos. I have always wanted a treadle, so I can't wait to go get it!! :-D

I had no problem getting into Needlebar just now (had to try it after reading here that people were not getting through). I was asked to login with my login name and password, but it went straight through.
Could it be that people here have forgotten what they logged in with originally? I have such a poor memory, that whenever I join a new group, I write down the details. |
