Reminds me of a Durkopp treadle.

I remember this machine/seller from a CL ad posted in this thread a some weeks ago at $1500(?).

It needs a complete restore. The table is shot, the motor is doubtful, etc. I'd pay $200, maybe a little more.

But I'd give 3-400 to make it a treadle... Not for quite a while though....

A few weeks ago I think you(?) posted an ad for the same or similar machine that was completely restored, a CL listing in the Bay Area I believe. Amazing machine. That would be my goal.

The stool is the same height as the old claw-foot stool that I’ve been using, until I sit on it and mush the piston down about an inch, so while seated, it’s a little shorter. I did have issues with getting a twist in my body trying to say hooked up with the treadle, and solved it by positioning my left foot out further from the treadle to get a little more leverage. That worked for this small task, but I’m still not convinced that it will be a workable solution when more sewing needs to be done. I’ll give it another whirl again someday.
