Oh how wonderful! I so want a hand crank but in looking at recent prices, I have decided to convert a 128 that I already have .... especially since I don't need or have room for another machine. You got a heck of a deal. Good for you and enjoy!

That was one heck of a good deal and so glad you were able to rescue it. I have like it but it was electrified. But I still like it.

Nice find!! The crank alone is worth the price. The decals look pretty good too. Congrats!

Last summer I was able to secure a hand crank and balance wheel from England. Total price including shipping was a tad over $100 USD. I did not want to put a Chinese unit on my machine and since this would be my only hand crank, I did not think it unreasonable for an original from 1900. The machine was purchased locally for my collection.
