Treadles were a novelty as such over in the UK and Europe because the flats were usually so small so the hand crank was the power source of choice.

He keeps coming down on them (they started around 8 or 9,000 dollars when he first listed them) but from what I hear he is a great guy to deal with when it comes to buying a machine.

But if you want to buy them for me to play with I am not arguing!!
