Purple you could send it to me as 240v is our standard voltage!! LOL I've considered getting a hand crank for mine too, thought it would be good for my grandaughters...then again I have the Minerva handcrank. Speaking of which I must spend some time with her as I was working full time when I bought her and never did get around to getting her fully operational...mind you, I don't think there's anything wrong with the machine, it's most likely the operator!!
Does anyone know where I could find more info on the Minerva? I've done searches but all draw blanks, mainly dating info would be great.
Thanks again
