Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell

They're pretty inexpensive at big ol' Wally World, but I do see them all the time at garage sales. I'm watching to see when the metal turkey "flavor injectors" (looks like a big, old-fashioned hypodermic needle) go on sale. Thought that might work to try to get in the small holes without getting kerosene everywhere. (Ok, really they just look cool to have, and I've never needed to inject poultry with anything).

A "new" machine followed me home today; cost me $10. She is a 1910 Singer #115. My first project machine, the only thing that moves right now is the handwheel(nothing else moves) and the stitch length lever. Most everything is rusted. It came with an added bonus! A mud dauber nest in the pillar(#2 pic). The decals are beautiful. I hope I can get her moving again.

Well. HHHMMM. I just called on one on CL and I'm picking up an unknown treadle in a cabinet tomorrow. The lady is wanting to change her decor. The machine is stuck down so any thoughts how to rescue her??? The lady says it begins with D and is very ornate. I hope I can sleep tonight...
