modified 28 Handcrank not pretty
Picked up this 1895 28 HC this weekend, Very rough.[ATTACH=CONFIG]611938[/ATTACH]
It would turn, but barely. Previous owner mods to the HC
[ATTACH=CONFIG]611939[/ATTACH] three bodged repairs, but hey it works.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]611940[/ATTACH] A stock one by the repaired one.
I am going to leave it repaired. I oiled and cleaned a bit and it makes a fine stich now. I will leave it's wear signs. Not all need to be restored to be beautiful.

And it has the front slide plate!! If it works, don't knock it.
I may try to do something different where it fits into the spokes of hand wheel. I guess that cloth 'cast' would make it a little quieter.
