Last summer I found an original HC with spoke wheel off a 1901 Singer. It was from England and cost a little over $100 to me in LA. It was in pristine condition and I was glad to acquired it. Recently I put together a 127 w/Chinese hand crank for a friend who needed a HC unit for use during their civil war reenactments where she could mend uniforms, sew patches, etc. She has used it on several occasions with no issues. I did take the crank apart for inspection and oiling. Since I had an original HC to compare it with, for the price, it was not bad.
