Beautiful machine jennb. Wish I could find one like that around here. Never see a nice one. 1 or 2 junkers.

I have this same machine already, but as a hand crank. I'm going to trade Steve the HC in exchange for the treadle cabinet and he'll have his machine as he wants it and I'll have mine as I want it!

Here are a couple of the Arrival shots of my new Elias Howe Model B.

I cannot get over how much this machine changed in just a few years...

Finally got my grandmother's Singer Stylist (413) repaired and back in the cabinet. And here she is! I may name her Flora after my grandmother.

Thanks, Steve. I sure hope she turns out to be a work horse! She makes a pretty straight stitch, so I may use her for piecing occasionally.
