According to the Sew Classic website, Jenny tests and lubricates each crank before it is shipped. I'll post my thoughts when the crank arrives. She also sells spoked wheels.
KLO - We had no problems during the storm thankfully. All our utilities are underground and I think that helps, although the wires must be above ground somewhere along the line. Also, I have a small battery backup (like for a computer) that will run the Rocketeer, if the need to sew gets too bad.

Glad to hear you were fine. Once you get the handcrank for your new--to-you 99, you won't have to worry about the battery backup.
I will be interested to hear how you like the handcrank you get. I really want to buy one but keep hesitating since there have been both good and bad reviews on them.
