Cotact Magazine will have the plan for it.
Call at 905-889-7705 for Frank , I'm pretty sure he can send you one. They
have them printed as a poster last year when they are in NECEA.

Hi Rick,
Sorry to hear of your computer crash. The treadle wheel plans are on two
different websites. They are:

Hope this helps,

Hey gang; It seems to me Mel has a Leach treadle wheel for sale at $1000.
It's of the MacKenzie lineage.
Contact the Mayor.
the best treadle wheels in the country are made by Doug Gates. They are
works of art with copper splash pans and birds eye maple and exotic woods.
My treadle wheel when clean is a art piece. Made of yellow oak for diana
Pancioli. I snagged it for $500Cdn. I love it!
Cheers,

tony
