this is my new baby that will be home soon ... I have had a 66 on my list, because its my birth year (I know, weird reason) ~ but she's pretty, and is already up and running. She will by mine soon :)

So, how many of you while researching info on vintage machines and usage of vintage machines start folders of the google sites that you found helpful?
:? :roll:

I know what you mean in that you feel like one of the junk drawers, that was how I'm feeling.
I never paid any attention to this feature, but now I will! After looking through yours, I now have an idea as to how to set mine up. Thank you again! :)

Hey, I think this is great! I love all 5 of my treadles, and my vintage machines. They have such history behind them. Just gotta lov'em!

Yes, some do look like chain sewing machines. The one on the far left reminds me of the Little Red Riding Hood Toy Sewing Machine made in Germany. Have to check on this. Sure are gorgeous.

Any ideas on how to keep the thread cutter on the 301 from sliding down? It seems to fit very tightly, but it slips down with use. Obvious answer - don't use it, but I'm accustomed to using a thread cutter.

This is fantastic! Again-Thanks for posting this information.
I copied a couple of your titles and added some of mine. I had only seen bookmarks, but never used that. This is much more helpful!

You are welcome. I have learned to use 'my pages' a lot more since that topic. Did you click on my Profile and see the pages I have categorized? If you have any questions I would be glad to help you out on this. I have found it to me most helpful. After 'bookmarking' quite a few topics and then trying to locate them, it just began to feel like one of my junk drawers.... you might find something you want in there if you swish thingies back and forth long enough. LOL :lol: :lol: :lol:
