I've observed a lot of interest in people wanting to convert newer
sewing machines to 'People Power.' This usually means either
converting the machine over to a handcrank, or to treadle power.
Since I am fortunate to have both a 401G electric machine and a
401G treadle machine, I thought I'd highlight the differences between
the two.
In the photograph above, I've placed both machines side by side. I have
already taken the treadle belt guard off of the treadle machine on the
left.
