This makes me so happy. lol. I'd really like to have one, but I saw some on eBay and they were $900. D: I'll stick to my double points I suppose. x)

Nifty, but after all that, I would have really liked to see the finished product.

they could make that machine much more efficient if they put a bigger gear on the crank and a smaller gear on the crankshaft

That was so interesting.Thanks for posting it. I had heard of these machines before and wondered how they worked. I would love to try one. How did you find out how to operate it and do you need a pattern book? Did you find an instruction book somewhere?
