I would have a Singer 201 that could be treadled (it was like finding gold). I paid $30 with box of attachments for that beauty (its my favorite machine). I wait a bit for a cabinet, and then saw on CLs a free extremely sad cabinet with a treadle that looked ok. That cabinet had a Singer 9W1 in bad shape too. I basically picked up an extremely nice treadle that had been protected by a cabinet that was now badly damaged (the cabinet) with a machine that looked like it had been used as a parts machine. I took the cabinet off the treadle and waited for a free cabinet to show up on CLs. A couple of weeks later and a 45 mins drive in one direction, I had a cabinet top. I had to take the legs off this cabinet top since it was designed for an e-machine. I'm not into refurbishing like Glenn is, too much work. So, it was easier to find a top to switch. So, for $30 I had a machine in treadle. I say the machines have a way of finding us, just be patient. |

Lee, very nice 99! Those 99s are great little work horses. Nancy |

Plus, I have to arrange for one of my son-in-laws to go with me to pick it up. I hope it all comes together, and is acceptable to the seller. |

Hey, I started in 1982 also... it was actually illegal at the time but when the superindendent of schools met up with us he told us we were probably giving our kids a better education. That was an unexpected comment. I better get off my homeschool bandwagon. Haven't been up there for quite a while. :-D :-D Glad your oozing points are dwindling. |
