I am pretty sure that Kate Dicey owns and uses a hand
crank SM, so check with Kate.

Yeah! And I got my treadle named Maria a couple of weeks ago. She need
some clean-up, and her oak finish may need some replacing in places,
but she is a beauty!
Question on hand-cranks. I have several old machines, like a 66-15 and
15-91, and would like to find out where to go to get one of them
changed to a hand-crank. I think. Does anyone use a handcrank? How do
you manage with only one hand to handle the fabric?
Thanks in advance. and congratulations Sue on your new-to-you treadle!
