Steve, That's great news! I've never tried it, but I couldn't picture it. The OP's machine (I hope she bought it!) has the motor terminal mounted on the boss -- could a hand crank fit on there too? Maybe with a little modification? I confess I am talking out of my hat because I only recently acquired a hand crank and it's still at a friend's house so I haven't sewn with it much. It is so much fun, though!

Very interesting. I'm new to this board and am looking forward to learning a lot here! I haven't sewn much with my back-clamper yet, but I was thinking that the only reason I might get the side-clamp adaptor would be so that I could use a hinged presser foot. But this one might serve me fine -- not sure yet.

It is a Broadway. 99 Clone ALUMINUM. Yes, I notched the handcrank, Took about 60 seconds with a 1/2 inch wide grinding wheel.
I did the same treatment to the Singer Spartan 99 clone here.
