Cowhorses Report post Posted February 8, 2013 This machine was bought new in 2002. It is the cast iron model with REVERSE. I bought this from the original owner, a friend, who absolutely never used it. When I got it, it had a thread take up issue. It went back to Tippman and fixed like new. It has worked well ever since. This machine does a great job, sewing up to 7/8" leather. Will go so slow a snail can pass it by...or you can speed it up(variable speed). I know there is a love/hate thing with Tippman machines, but I've yet to meet anyone who really used one, dislike it. It will sew very heavy thread. Mostly I use 277 and sometimes run 207 on the bottom. Comes with 3 or 4 large bobbins. This machine has had very little use. I am selling it because I am getting a different type harness machine. If I could afford to keep them both I would. Pics available on request and possible a video as well...for private messaging. I am asking $1550 and you will not be disappointed and the condition is like new. Shipping is around $100. If you want to sew heavy leathers, at a workable speed and reasonable price, this machine might be for you. I have the kit that came with it, which includes the necessary allen wrenches, drill attachment for bobbin winder, in Tippman case. Spare needles as well.

Cowhorses Report post Posted February 9, 2013 In case some don't know about this type of machine, here is a video that shows this machine and the one I have sews just as this one does. Mine does not have the attached bobbin winder or the needle set attachment. But other than that they are identical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
