Kathy, I've used WD40 to remove sticky things from a lot of nice things. Just do a test spot with a qtip. Also have used GooGone but it smells worse than WD40. WD40 is like a miracle drug!! :)
You guys have come up with a lot of wonderful ideas. Thank you. Kathie |
Woo hoo! Glad there's at least one more. I can't fit many more machines in my house, so you're going to have to take over.

By the way, there are a LOT of fabulous machines coming out of Texas (mostly coming from England in furniture shipments). There are many there that I drool over.

Has a new rubber belt with it, hanging on the arm and 5 metal, 3 plastic bobbins. Would be a good one to covert to handcrank, already has the right hand wheel.

I brought home a little machine Thursday night, front says Sewrite, back says Regal. It was free in small cabinet. Notice the small/little reference. The motor is gone. My question is, can I put a Kenmore motor on it? And if I do, will it work right? Camera dead or I would post pics. Then yesterday I drove down to Columbus, OH and picked up a red eye treadle, dirty, but decals, irons in great shape. Cabinet needs work. I also brought home 2 Kenmores. Now I have 4 machines sitting in my kitchen. My son just shook his head and went home after unloading.
