Could you make a hand-crank out of it?

I used the wrong word in that other post. Instead of coverstitch, I should have said “overseaming”. Completely different stitches, and I apologize for the confusion.

No, later. Coverstitch machines are all the rage now. Instead of just overlocking the edges of fabric like a serger, it makes the hem line you see on t-shirts, for example.

My wife just added a Janome CoverPro 1000CP to her shop machines about a week ago, maybe that’s why I used the wrong word for the overseaming machine that this thread is about. I must have cover stitch on the brain....
