Treadle Cabinets
I think I've found a Singer 66 Red Eye head only. It does work with a crank, but will not be sold with a crank and the box it sits in is also not available. So I need to put this in something. Are the openings in the treadle cabinets pretty much standard? Like if a cabinet with a Minnesotan or some other brand than Singer, would that opening work for the 66?
TIA

Went and looked at this page and it is a goldmind of information, even had instructions on how to make cabinets. Maybe that will help, also info on cleaning up and making old cabinets look good without refinishing. Only wish I had more room for vintage machines, I am now hooked.

I found a hand crank here - http://www.sewingmachineparts.net/handcranks.html
Does anyone know the quality of this? Not too expensive but think maybe I should order one.
