    TLCquiltnut. I was going to reply right away but I got busy wiping up the drool from looking at your machine. It is very beautiful. You are one lucky person. Kathie

    I saw that listing...if I were closer to Sacto I would get it even if just for display in my sewing room.
    I love it. I never see those out this way. I would be on my way to get it!!

    After reading about the 2 spool sewing machines that you gals have I finally did an image search to see what they looked like. I have never seen this kind of sewing machine before. Hmmmm......Interesting! Anyway, I came across this site and found a set-up to have 5 treadle treadle machines over 5 treadle bases under one custom made table! What a great space saver!! Check it out (scroll down the page a little bit):

    This is the site that I found before finding my Two Spools. It is a very interesting machine. Makes beautiful straight stitches, but not as smooth as the Davis NVF. I'm happy that I own both machines since each is unique!

    Cathy, that was a great article about the five treadle machines at one table. Very interesting info about the machines also. Thanx for sharing.

    Does anyone know anything about a "New National" Hand Crank Machine? What should I look for to tell if it is complete?
    What kind of price range do they tend to go for? Thanx in advance. luv2learn

    Eeewww the dreaded pin rash from the former owner wrapping a rag around the machne and using it for a pin cushion. I haven't dealt with one this bad.
