  1. Waiting for a servo motor and a speed reducer
  2. I bought a Wilhelm Pedersen splitter a month ago, fully refurbished and it splits leather like a hot knife in butter
  3. The knee lift is not supposed to be connected to the wire ! Om the back side of the machine there is a rod with a spring that is to be connected to the knee lift lever.. The wite is used when you operate the presser foot lift with a pedal. The one who set this up does not know what he is doing! My humble opinion
  4. The Hightex Cowboy splitter seems to be a clone of the Fenda splitter. I bought one yesterday ! :D
  5. I have a JACK 550 watt servo from College sewing on my 335, works great
  6. If the thread is bunching up under the material it is the top thread tension that must be tightened
  7. The saddle is made in Uttar Pradesh, India. It is junk and should never be on a horse. I bought 4 of those cheap saddles ( used) just to see what was inside. My advise is to throw it in a garbage container. Some photos: https://www.facebook.com/pg/Old-Timers-sadelsida-213225115376738/photos/?tab=album&album_id=722074604491784

      hi

      i saw your comment about cruppers, i have been looking for a pattern for a crupper to be used with a draft horse harness any comments or info would be appreciated 

      thanks pete

  9. Is it the part in the pic at far right that is worn and makes stitches shorten by wear?
  10. Is this the part that regulates the stitch length ?
  11. Do you have a pic of the part named bell crank?
  12. A couple of years ago I found an article on the web how to refurbish a 29 K machine, to repair a worn part that determines the stitch lenght I can´t find the article again . Anyone ? / OldTimer
  13. A Cobra class 26 is the clone of a JUKI 341, a better choice than a 335, IMHO
  14. Does anyone have the email adress to Ron´s tools ?
