This is for SteveH I searched all my pic. files for a view of the harvest table up, but they all had table linen and Food all over it. So it went out to the garage to get a pic. of it put way. this table is too big for our house, it has no leaves just one solid piece. We only use it for holidays, large summer get togethers. As you can tell from these my DH has it all squared away[ATTACH=CONFIG]433278[/ATTACH] he is retired military, civil service. the pics are jumping all around and giving me fits tonight.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]433276[/ATTACH]this is the best shot I could get of the carved legs, the reason they are up this high and the table top turned to the back is our D cat likes to sharpen her claws on everything.
And as I got the last shot of the table I noticed this very large Lady 11/2" right by my foot. It's that time of the year.. so be careful everyone when you are out look for that choice SM or card table. I nearly fainted.

back to the original thread.... I just found out I did something similar to the OP.

When I first started collecting i got a great deal on a Wheeler Wilson 12 (industrial) but it was literally in a box...

Well last night I pulled out the box hoping I could put it all together and have it up for the show this weekend in Willits, when I found a bag labeled "parts" stuffed in the pile of wood that was the drawer....

6 original Wheeler & Wilson #9 needle packs, 2x Boye #16 needle tubes (3x needles in each), three bobbins, and 1 bobbin case!!

Oh, and the main drive shaft for the treadle has 6 of the 18 ball bearings...
I am hoping to buy those today and get it back together tonight.

Now I don't feel quite so bad SteveH, What a find, I know that those pieces for your Wheeler and Wilsons are hard to come by.
I thought the FW table was for some type of gambling, the removable piece lifting up so the cards or money could be placed there. :shock: My knowledge has expanded so far with this SM addiction, it just so great!
