For Sale

I have a singer treadle base for sale. There are some problems with the veneer, and the screw holes for the hinge pins are reefed. However, it could be fixed. Right now it is taking up room in my bedroom, and I'd like to sell it. 50 dollars, or make me an offer. I am in Sublimity, which is about 20 mins from Salem. Can possibly deliver.

I have a western electric sewing machine with 2 bobbins and a shuttle. It also has the original motor. I have never tried to sew with it, but as far as I can tell it does work. I bought it at a TOGA, and then wasn't quite sure why I bought it. I bought it for 40 dollars. The decals are in pretty good shape, and the case is in good condition also. Please email for pictures.

For Sale

Photos of these items can be seen in my Webshots For Sale Album. Feel free to write if you have more questions or need more photos.

1925 SINGER MODEL 101 in bentwood case with knee bar control. Cleaned, lubricated and tested. Decals in good condition considering the machine is 85 years old. The 101 was Singer's first all electric machine with the built on motor. Followed later by the model 201. Also will provide a pdf file of 101 manual via email. $50 plus shipping.

1870 WHEELER & WILSON #4 TREADLE HEAD. This machine is not a flashy beauty but has been completely disassembled, cleaned thoroughly, reassembled and lubricated. It does have one bobbin but no needle. Good project machine that can be put in working order with the addition of a needle and treadle for it. If I keep it, a paint job may be in order. SOLD!

1870-72 ELIAS HOWE MODEL A TREADLE HEAD. This one is a good project machine for someone looking for a bit of sewing history. I have disassembled it completely, added a top tension unit, replaced the presser bar (had a broken part), Evaporust treatment of the entire machine, wirebrushed entire machine and reassembled and lubricated it. It DOES have a shuttle and bobbin but no needle. It definitely needs a base to set in (otherwise it flops around). It still looks to be rough but the photos are deceiving. I did paint the underside of the bed after wirebrushing because I could not get Evaporust in there. Anway, it does turn and could be made to run again or would make a great display. $40 plus shipping.

SEVERAL ATTACHMENT SETS AND BUTTONHOLERS: These are also shown on my For Sale album at my webshots site. If anything is not priced, email and I will be happy to give you a quick return. Keep an eye on my For Sale album in the future for additions.

For Sale

I have two nice treadles for sale. One is a National and the other is a 3/4 size English that is almost certainly a badged Jones. I'd like to get them placed in a nice home (other than mine, which is again getting rather crowded). $75 each, pick up only.

Wanted

Singer 28 or 128 or similar size VS machine that either has a handcrank or one on which I can put a handcrank. Why? It's a birthday gift for the 7-8 year old daughter of a friend of ours. I helped her make some gifts using my Singer 28K. I didn't have to repeat any instruction. She said, "When I grow up, I want a hand sewing machine. It's a lot easier than a foot pedal one." Her grandparents asked me to find one for her for her birthday.

We are in Salem, OR, but would consider driving to Eugene and/or Portland.
