Yeah I got one of them. A Canedy Otto model made in 1909 I think. You are right in that the way it advances is pretty neat. Mine has a wing nut that you can adjust the feed speed by. Really cool. Here is a picture of it located in the background unfortunately...

I have and will always use both. There are some thing you just can't do with power tools. That said there are some things that are just plan crazy to do by hand when you have the perfectly good tool right there.
