I use a recipe very similar to the one Jeanne Chappel posted for a hand-crank
type pasta machine except it doesn’t use egg substitute.

1 cup semolina flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup water

Simply mix the semolina and all-purpose flour and gradually add up to a half
cup of water till the flour holds together in a ball. Cover and let rest for a
half hour to an hour. Divide ball into quarters and roll through machine a
quarter at a time.
