It needs to be oiled and I need a piece of leather for the fly wheel to get it to work other then that looks like its in great shape to use.


it was made in 1910 in St. Jeans Quebec

Right now I hate you so much... but it's a good kind of hate :p

My grandmother told me that she still has my great-grandmother's old Singer treadle powered machine and that I could have it... but I never heard anything more about it :(
