Eric,
Although we've drifted a bit off-topic, you brought up the amount and expense of machining as a point against rebuilding the TreadleVac. I must admit that I didn't follow all the links that you provided, but I don't see where anyone out there in cyberspace has come forward with details to support that point. Therefore, I'm reasonably questioning how much machining is truly "required".
Yet, I fully agree with what you later wrote, that:
Quote:
...there is only one true choice to make, and that is whatever YOU decide to do.
People need to make a fully informed decision, but the problem is that people don't (yet) have all the facts that they're looking for.
