Thank you all for your comments.  It was a fun project as to learning how to do everything from the perspective of how did they do that 120 years ago without all the power tools we/I have today.  Some of you had requested some more detailed pictures of the process.  I am working on getting some of the pictures off my prior phone that had some problems.  Should have it resolved soon.

Also, I have no Idea what brand it is, but have seen others while researching things that appear to have the same axle layout and seat setup.

I have to thank this website for providing me a lot of information on sewing machines, skivers, thread, tips and techniques.  I have not sewn anything since 1975  skipping school and playing with my moms machine in the basement.  Ended up with a new Juki, off brand bell skiver and a button press in the shop.  Can never have enough tools.
