Maybe the first and last time you will ever see someone who has rigged up a treadle to generate DC power. (Not very efficient! A bicycle is a lot easier). Good exercise though, ha ha. #humanpower #treadle

Aha, found the scavenged treadmill motor. Now, to figure out how to mount this. I wonder if it's better to have the treadle belt over the flywheel (like a sewing machine, big diameter) instead of where the serpentine belt used to go.... probably will have to drill some belt holes to hold everything together to the wood top. #projects #humanpower
