I think it was someone on Treadleon that recently explained that the Two Spools works beautifully at treadle speed, but the speed from a motor on this sewing machine was too much for the spool can's mechanics. So, the popularity of owning a machine with motor won. I purchased one Two Spools that at one time had a motor attached to it and one that had only been treadled. I believe the one that had a motor, most likely had the motor added when it became the fashion to own a machine with motor.
