Hi all,
I am Anna, ?I am not a collector.

I found this little sewing machine at my local Goodwill in Minnesota for 29 dollars and could not leave it behind.
It’s a D9 serial number 2360363. This was love at first sight. After I took it home, I did a little research and found your group. Thank you for admitting me.

Somebody obviously used it as a planter table at one point. And the ?footrest attachment ( right term ??) is missing a bolt to attach it to the fly wheel.? The flywheel turns. The wheel on the machine turns and the sewing machine head bobs up and down nicely, a lot of tools and the leather belt were left in the drawers of the table. The needle is still in. It feels, as if it’s ?been used and set aside for years after last use,?
I have some questions, because I want to clean it up, however I don’t want to damage it.

1. I was thinking of cleaning the wood with a simple wood cleaner ( Murphy’s ?) and try restore and finish?
2. maybe just use something to blow off the dust. The machine turns nicely without any resistance, should I still use oil?
3. The logo has either faded or has been cleaned off. is there any way I could restore this? I don’t want to use decals.
4. what kind of bolt should I use to reattach the fly wheel to the wooden pin that connects to the footrest?

and is there anything that I really shouldn’t do? Thanks
