Never would have thought in my 70th year I'd be watching a fella dismantle an ancient sewing machine on my handheld 11" screen, sitting on the porch, chewing a Delta 9 gummy.

I have a later model of that (restored and electrified) with a few attachments (Button Hole, etc.).
It is probably a early 20th Century model and I don't know what the heck to do with it.

I learned how to sew on the foot treadle model Singer machine as a kid.

Ric,

This one also started life as a treadle machine. My Mom had it electrified, removed from the treadle base and mounted to a carry base.
Everything else was cleaned. polished and spruced up.
The finished product appears to be recently made.
