I picked up several machines and a couple of treadle cabinets about a month ago. My goal was to learn a little more about how to clean and repair machines properly. The hardest thing with any sewing machine so far on dating has been with non-Singer varieties of machines. So all we can do is find the history of a Sewing Company or the catalog companies that sold these machines to get a guestimate on when they may have been created.

It's just the first part of the cleaning stage. This machine is super smooth and quiet. I can't wait to find a cabinet to put it in and see how it works. :-) So more to come at another time.
