cattle cutter

Thanks everyone. We had to store it in a tack room right now until his workshop gets here in a couple of days. It wouldn't fit in the shop he is in now as the building was just to small. I know he would have brought it in the house if I let him. Jack talked to my husband a few days ago & explained everything he needed to know about the machine. My husband can't wait to start using it.

The machine came as you see it. We did not get any other parts with it. The folks I got it from took it from a guy that owed them money. He was a harness maker in NV. He never paid them back & they brought it to CA when they moved. There is a holding pot that seems to have a greasy looking wax in it. It looks like there was something attached to the front of the stand & also like there was a rod or something that went thru a hole in the back. I am presuming that it was something that held the thread spool. The shuttle is there but there was no cover on it. Did these have a seperate bobbin somewhere ?

Let me start by saying I am glad to have found this forum & all help will be gladly appreciated. I bought my husband this machine for Christmas. He repairs all the tack & saddles at the ranch & is making his own saddles now. I can't find a name anywhere on it & I know it is missing a few things. If anyone knows who made it & anything about getting parts for it, please let me know.
