Candace, That Roseville class is at Cathy's house. That was where yesterday's Mini TOGA was held. You should try to make one of the TOGA at her place since she is extremely helpful and has a beautiful collection of vintage machines.
The spring TOGA will be in Turlock in March, and the fall TOGA will be at her house. From time to time mini TOGA occurs, like yesterday which about a dozen folks showed up.

Thanks for the info. I'm not into treadle machines, though. ( I know, I know...don't start throwing rotten fruit at me :>). But, I bet you some of the info. carries over to electric machines. I do pretty well now with repairs, but I'm not at the level of replacing gears or camstacks....

I looked at his page. I don't get your "messy" comment. I found all the info very easy to read.

I have never taken a Ray White class, would love to do so, but can't afford it in this moment of time.
But- I do have to say that Ray White is a very nice man. Gives big bear hugs.....

Nancy, I had a wonderful day also at Cathy's. It was great visiting with all.
I got that hemmer to work.

I use to do website design and manage sites. The site is very cluttered and hard to read....but that's just my opinion. I'm not judging, as not everyone knows the ins and outs-in fact, I know just enough to be dangerous.

These White 77 parts may interest some of you.

Your statement: "But, I bet you some of the info. carries over to electric machines."

Geez... the man has only been in the sewing repair business for the last 35 years...I doubt he was just fixing vintage machines in treadles for that time period. And I'm sure if you bring one of your e-machines to his class, he will teach you how to fix it.

Umm....I was talking about the TOGA event and that I wasn't into treadles though some of the info there would carry over to electric machines. Don't know what I did to anger you today....
