I have a set of of these and they work really well - enough clearance to have the curtain easily slide. IKEA also sells some surprisingly light but very effective blackout curtains.

How would I go about securing a granite slab to a wooden top, or is there a better material? Gravity? (Place the granite top in a wooden frame, or have some kind of pins/tenons between the slab and the table, to keep it from sliding around. The weight of the slab alone should keep it from falling out.)

Yay, vintage sewing machine! I would never have pegged that machine as being that old. Were Brother machines usually Singer clones before the war? The only vintage ones you ever really see in the US are from the 50's on when sewing machines started to look like something out of the Jetsons. Also it's kind of blowing my mind to see a treadle machine with such a different design in the table and pedal. Could I ask for a better picture of the lower half?

I'm sorry, it was actually 1947 (Showa 22). Japan dates everything in emperor years  The Mitsubishi table only has a hand stamped 377 on the inside of the cover. Idk if it's older or younger than the machine.

So it is a clone! So Singer clones are machines produced by Japanese companies from blueprints the US government handed over during the occupation to get Japanese industry going again. They're almost always Singer 15s, and while that model was originally produced with a treadle option (it is from 1879), I've never seen a clone that was anything other than electric. Neat find.

Hell yeah  I emailed Brother with photos and a uselessly obsure serial number and they did their best to date it for me based on logo style and body shape. Come visit and pedal my tread  quote:ミシンの形状、「ＢＲＯＴＨＥＲ」のロゴや peanut fucked around with this message at 13:26 on Jun 25, 2019 |

peanut posted:Come visit and pedal my tread Not gonna kinkshame you but I’m kinda fat, you sure about this? That’s cool as hell that Brother was able to identify it for you, though. How difficult is it to keep pace on the pedal? I’d imagine that finding a natural rhythm is might be difficult as you’re trying to manipulate the workpiece.

I haven't tried sewing anything yet. Mostly because of the original leather belt, but also mostly laziness  My kids love to squeak that big old creaker.

That's really cool. My stepmom has a similar one, though I don't know if she's looked into the history of it at all. Also it's broken, sadly. Needs a new leather strap.

peanut posted:Hell yeah That's cool of them. The thing about the clones is there's pretty much no manufacturing documentation on them; they just got cranked out and dumped on the market with no concern for product lines or branding or anything. Brother was making machines before the war, and it looks like they carried over the markings from their original design to the 15, at least for the early models. Later ones you'd only know it was a Brother by looking for stamps on the body. If anyone wants to actually use their treadle, parts are pretty easy to get online. You can also convert most models to electric with an external engine if you want to go that route.

is the recess on the left some kind of rain water style shower? there appears to be some kind of transparent plate directly above it; they aren't trying to allow actual rain water in there are they? also i can just see coming into that bathroom too quick because i'm in a hurry to use the toilet and completely misstepping into the bathing pit. i'd really be eating poo poo if that happened. edit: again that kind of bizarre design seems like it'd only maybe kinda make sense if this was a really tiny room and they had to get creative trying to fit a full bath in there, but that's obviously not the case. why do this when the room is enormous enough to already contain all of the elements of a full bath?
