Best pasta machine for teen enthusiast

I've never seen the point of electric pasta machines- at any rate for a young enthusiast a manual machine will cause no difficulty- cranking the machine is not problem, and doing it by hand gives a better feel for the process. I've used several machines and not noticed a great deal of difference- currently using an Italian "Ampia" brand. One difference- some kinds have the cutters built into the machine, others will accommodate separately purchased cutters, allowing more flexibility.

Here are a few answers, and suggestions.
A manual pasta machine (does the job, moderate cost compared to electric ones or attachments to stand mixer). For example, Imperia or Marcato
Book? a manual from Cook's Illustrated.

Or an Italian point of view

Beyond or aside from the pasta rolling machine & book...
If you have a cooking school or teacher near you, buy him a single class (a few hours or half a day) in how to make pasta. This is often eye-opening and a big help with technique.
A very fine (simple wood) rolling pin and large board to work on (instead of or in addition to the pasta cutting machine)
