Happy Valentine's Day. Making The Wife's Gift Using Black Swan, Wicked Queen And The 29K72 For The Win.

During one of our pilgrimages to Osgood Textile a couple of years ago we had bought some leather along with a few dozen pounds of other fabrics.  My wife had asked me to make her a bag out of it.  The same style as this one I had made her.

Happy Birthday To Me - 29 Treadle (...umm parts)

(14 Jan, 2019 edit.  Once again, I originally had the machine called out as a 29K73.  Oops.)

The problem with the 29K72 is that it is not as petite as a 29-4, or even a 29K71.  So a standard table for normal sized 29s is just a tad short for it.  Taking that in mind my wonderful wife went out and for my birthday bought up some pieces me and the boy and hack on to make a DIY table.

Merry Christmas! (2017) - 29K72

(Jan 14, 2019 edit - After more research... reading the freakin' manual.  I discovered this is actually a 29K72 instead of a 29K73 as I originally posted).

Well... at least this time it's only been five months between posts.  So that's a plus.

Quite a few updates coming now but I'll start with the one that I've been spending the most time on (other than getting the sewing room, insulated, framed and sheet rocked in the garage attic).  The 29K72 from 1941.  The model plate was ripped off so I needed to do a bit of research to figure out the exact sub-model of the 29 series.  I found service manual/parts list that gave the nomenclature of each model.  If you need to research 29K7Xs there is a badly scanned copy here.
