How To Repair A White Rotary Treadle Machine

Hello all! I hope everyone is doing splendidly! Recently I had the unbelievable opportunity to restore a White Rotary USA treadle machine and am so excited to share that experience with you! Foreword: my repairs needed were fairly minimal however I hope that something I say will come in handy for anyone looking to endeavor upon fixing their own machine. White Rotary machines are slightly less common than some other antique machines so the information on them is fairly limited and I hope to remedy that a bit. I hope you enjoy and should you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! YouTube is such a great way to learn new things and collaborate with communities that share an interest with you!
