Anatomy of a Singer Treadle Sewing Machine - Naming the Parts

Anatomy of a Singer Treadle Sewing Machine - Naming the Parts, looks at the different parts of a #treadle machine and how they work. We'll also be going down a couple of rabbit holes as we dig into the history behind some of the technical wizardry that makes Grandma tick.

If Rabbit-holing isn't your thing skip from 4:33 to 8:42. That bit talks about the Pitman Arm. Although, you might want to jump back in at 6:50 if you want to find out why Tabitha Babbitt attached a saw blade to her spinning wheel.
