George was screaming at the TV during the Kentucky Derby.
Hes been excited about our local jockey and the Canadian owned horse running the Derby,
and sure enough they won!
All while I was painstakingly trying to rebuild this treadle sewing cabinet.
Id been looking for some examples of re purposed treadle cabinets on-line
but to my dismay there were very few to be found.
I knew I wanted to paint the metal base in white but what to do to the rest of it ...
The repairs needed were very extensive and frustrating with all the fragile pieces
that had to be fastened back together.
I eventually got it resembling its former self with a few replacement parts.
I maintained the pedal and wheel so if used as a desk,
you can keep your feet amused and occupied.
