    could you post a pic of the cabinet it's in ?

    at the start of the winter , I got this same machine, yours is much much nicer, This one is in a wooden leg stand. in months of searching have only found photo's of one, which is of a 4 drawer cabinet, mine has no drawers

    I'm not sure if this one is correct or if it has been cut down
    as for the machine it's self, out of 30+ VS machines I have this one rates as #1 , it's just easy and fun to use

    Default Brunswick

    Hi HellenAnn.
    I though you might like to see my Brunswick. Don't you just love the bed decal with MW monogram. This machine is a great sewer to. I use mine often.

    Helen thank you. Thats not it LOL. all but one photo has been of the metal leg/stand style/

    I seeing the routed edge of the top and at the corner. I do think the top on mine is it's original top. This is the working space top not the lid

    Thinking back, none of those have had the same cabinet on the stand, at least the drawers have all been different.

    the center drawer / piece on all have been different, yet the ends of the center have all been on the same lines of styling..

    What a beauty. I do love the decals and your formula has worked like magic. I'll post when I get her finished.

    I have several treadles and none of the cabinets are the same. I know they are all different machines but such variety . I think that is why I keep picking them up.

    Glenn is that the machine we lost the screw and took all day to find it? We were all over that floor... it was between the wall and the floor. If so, it was my intro to getting the old leaf tension machines functioning.

    Leaf tension? Is that what those things on top are called.
