    That was the 411G I think what pic I took of the 401 is above somewhere.
    Inside the 411G disk cover door - note - the spool pins are broken and someone tried to fix them - the printing on it is very hard to read - the 401G is much easier to read.
    picture failure so I deleted it...

    A link - how I treadled mine - I would for sure test out t spinning wheel belt before I ground off anything to make it treadle.

    Thank you so much for posting all of this information, and for all of the pictures. I have read about the German machines, but never seen one. Now, I have a much better idea of them. I, too, am a vintage machine aficionado. And sad to say, a collector of them, too. If only I lived in a castle--I would have enough room for all the ones I would like to have!

    I broke my spool pin and purchased an inexpensive water color paint brush, plastic. I cut it in two piece and it works well as spool pins.
