Thanks Skipper Glenn - I would never have believed that machine could look so good and take so little time. It is back together but still needs the screw I found to adjust the stitch length installed. The treadle cabinet is in rough shape. Maybe a tutorial how to fix those some time?

I have a FW which has been repainted no decals & the paint is coming off How should I go about refinishing. It sews well & I probably will keep it til it Dies. Where & what kind of paint should I use. I found an outlet for the decals. Thanks for your help

Thanks for all the hints about the shellac, but I am wondering has anyone ever use polyurethan on the cabinets?
