Looking forward to pictures! I once had a Janome TB-30, but it's now my daughters, along with Singer 15-91.

This one is put together using the staple from the original belt...
Thanks Charlee, I will give it a try. I hope to move some cabinets this weekend and get another treadle set up.

Nope! I didn't touch the pressure on the foot. I gave it a test run and it work. The foot doesn't hop like on the darning or hopping foot. It's a bit different from FM on a Singer where you drop the feed dogs.
Next time I will have to play with the pressure on the foot.

Once I get my VF into her base I'll be able to try it.....still sitting on a box! (sigh) Wish my DH could realize just how impatient I am getting!!! (grrrrr...soft grumbling).
