I have been determined to try to fit one of my zz machines in the treadle stand that Steven and I built last winter. Because Betsy and I had another demo Saturday at the Farmer's Market, I had a deadline. I took the motor off of the Japanese no name machine and rasped down the edges of the opening in the stand so it would fit. I had to shorten the belt as well. It worked great.......It is so wonderful to be able to zig zag with a treadle. Lots of folks really enjoyed our demo and we had several people, including some kids, trying it out. Some were naturals. Others had more of a challenge. It was a fun day and I love treadling with my Japanese Zig Zag. I think the 237 can treadle as well....
