Looking for a Pick and Ship in the Seattle Area...
Hey folks,
I just bought an old treadle machine in the Seattle area (35 minutes east of Seattle in Falls City).
I am looking for a person in the area willingto pick it up, take the treadle apart and ship the head and treadle. (I will provide full instructions, cover the materials and shipping of course)
PM me for details if interested.
Steve

You might check with Quality Sewing and Vacuum in Issaquah and see if they know anyone who would do this. There's also a quilt shop in Gilman Village (Gossipium) and they might have some ideas, too. I know Kinko's/FedEx does pack and ship, but I don't know if they do sewing machines.

No way I would let Kinkos pack and ship this, but thanks for the thought.
Looks like we have it covered!!!
I have a QB Member that is picking the machine up today or tomorrow and taking it to Portland.
Then a super nice couple from Treadle On who live in Portland are taking it to the next TOGA event here in the Sacramento area (At Cathy/Mizkaki's place) on the 3rd of October.
Real pics once it is in hand, but here are the CL pics
1867-1870 Franklin (they only made them for 3 years, not sure of the date yet)
Made in New Hampshire.
Similar to the Grover & Baker, it is a two spool double chainstitch machine
