I know this guy he is in the service and when he was stationed over in Europe he would buy and fill containers full of these things and have them shipped back to the states on their tab! This is only a few of what he has and he has a lot of them and some really rare ones to boot. These are the okay condition machines and the vast majority of them are handcranks. Treadles were a novelty as such over in the UK and Europe because the flats were usually so small so the hand crank was the power source of choice. He keeps coming down on them (they started around 8 or 9,000 dollars when he first listed them) but from what I hear he is a great guy to deal with when it comes to buying a machine. But if you want to buy them for me to play with I am not arguing!! Billy |

Got the book and attachments with this one and it uses cams so you can zig zag and make button holes. The machine is all metal even have the orginial price tag. It went at an auction yesterday for $5.00. Having a hard time making it sew the motor is really good but it won't pick up the bobbon thread and when it does it still doesn't sew it skips really bad. :cry: any suggestions? Thanks

I think it's a child's machine? Its pretty small, but then again, its made very well, it seems too "advanced"(LOL) for a childs. What do you guys think? It's pretty dirty, I'm getting ready to clean it up.
Again, does anyone know a free place online to find older manuals? I have no idea where to oil this one. I probably wont use it, I mainly got it just to sit in my room since its sooooo cute! I almost had one but I was out bid on eBey for over $200 for the full sized one with all of the accessories. Nice machine and hang on to it because it will be the more expensive of all the Kenmores built!!! Billy |
