Sometimes older machines are converted to hand crank. There are inexpensive modern kits to do this. The machine needs to have a place to mount the handle. Good candidates are the Singer 27, 28, 127, 128, 66, 99 and the Singer Spartan. I have heard good things about the Necchi BU machines as well. There are many reasons for wanting to convert.

Is the handle of a singer hand crank always clockwise?
Well, most Singer machines are anti-clockwise, but not all, and Singer is not the only maker out there. There are plenty of machines with clockwise rotation, so just check yours, please, don’t assume things. Regardless of what the machine is doing, the handle of a hand-crank will always turn clockwise, because it’s much easier to work it this way.
