Wow! How cool is that?? It reminds me of the TARDIS console a few years back (Matt Smith I think).

$200 for a Singer 66 is to laugh at to begin with. But what happened to the paint on everything but the belt guard?

Hmm,.. anyone seen a treadle... uh cabinet like this one before?
Is it a handyman special or an original I've not seen before?

Tammi, I think I've seen the base of that but with a wider top. I wonder if they modified it for a smaller space? It's not terribly attractive but wouldn't take up much room for a treadle!

It looks like someone repainted it with that faux granite stuff! I wish there were more/better photos.

The top was interesting in that it looks like it's tongue in groove. It looks like it would be reasonably easy to knock something like that together if a person had the right tools and have it turn out reasonably attractive. I'd like to see more but I'm not going to waste the seller's time because they want too much for it.

Way too many zeros on this one - I actually took a second look cause I couldn't believe the price
