Definitely more complex to me than a small engine carburetor....
That's the best way to approach it.
I think a small engine carb and a sewing machine - as far as the gears is likely pretty similar in difficulty rating. The SM is way less stinky thus less offensive if you rebuild it in the house too. *she says from experience*

I think those cheap machines are responsible for so many people thinking they can't sew.
That's a good thing you did there.
You know, they make some really good after market needle threaders. I think it's Fons and Porter who even makes a lighted one.
