Why manually? ;)

On a 45 RPM 7 inch disc, 4 minutes can be recorded easily, at 0dB 6 mins 
shouldnt be a problem either, and (depending on the sound) 8 mins can be put 
onto one side without too much problems too :)

Jukeboxes are nice :) Escpecially for listening to 7inch disks - imagine you 
would have to swap disks on your turntable each 2-8 mins, lol ;)

I wonder if there are some old 78RPM boxes which were modified to play 33/45 
10 inch microgroove disks - then you could easily put 10 mins or more onto 
one side I think...
