Ready made hand crank collection for sale
Everytime I see this listing on ebay I drool:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/50-ANTIQUE-A...-/150663158765
Not that we could afford it right now, but.... Then reality sets in and I ask where I'd put them. Then I think about the fun of the chase that I'd miss out on if I bought a collection ready to clean up. Then I think about how scarce hand cranks are on the ground here in Wisconsin and start to contemplate it again

I know I wouldn't do it just to try to turn around and sell them. Too much hassle without a guaranteed return. Using it as the base of a collection, though - I could see that. Sell of the ones that are duplicates or that just don't appeal and consider anything brought in that way to be icing on the cake. But we'd be back to having a collection rather than building a collection and I the building part is fun, too.

WoW! I have 2 hand cranks, A Minnesota Model D (that I was told would make a good boat ancher) and a Singer 99. I use the Singer more and really enjoy sewing with it. But I only paid $20 for it......but worth more in enjoyment to me.

If I found a 99 hand crank for $20 that even came close to working I'd snap it up! I'd really like to have a pretty one but at that price I'd settle.
