Trying this 1970's "Portable Sewing Machine" (and i only hate it a little bit)

YEEHAW it's time to futz around with another gadget of the past! I found this 1970's portable sewing machine in an antique store a few months ago and was too chicken to try it out until right now, lol.
My goal is to complete a whole garment solely using this contraption, and I uh.... mostly succeeded?
ANYWHO, please enjoy this voyage of discovery and only a little bit of cursing.

Patterns I used:
Dirndl - Folkwear 123
1930's Sleeves
