[Bobbins to fit pearson #6 shuttle]

The ones I got were slightly too long. Very close but slightly lon . I bought a new shuttle also so it's really not a problem. I am buying more bobbins to help speed up sewing by not having to wind bobbins all the time

I got mine from Mr Veenhoven

[Adjusting stitch length on a pearson #6]

The dial with the numbers has no effect on my stitch length. I keep it cleaned and oiled really good . Like the Valdez . I adjusted the bolt with the square heads and even though the dial isn't touching it it still is sewing at 5 1/2-6 stitches per inch which will do I guess.   If the dial is set on any number and it touches the bolt kn back that has the square head it sews in one hole

I'll give this a try thanks 

[Adjusting stitch length on a pearson #6]

If I set the dial at any number it never changes the stitch length. I will try adjusting the bolt you mentioned. 

[Adjusting stitch length on a pearson #6]

 I am looking for information on adjusting the stitch length on my pearson #6. It is sewing a beautiful and I mean beautiful stitch at 8 stitches per inch. I can turn the dial the manual says adjusts the stitch anywhere from 12 spi down to 4 spi and nothing changes just the same 8 spi. What am I missin . Any help would be greatly appreciated

I might be interested in your strap cutter if you still have it 

[Bobbins to fit pearson #6 shuttle]

Does anyone have a source for bobbins that will fit an original Pearson #6 shuttle. I have a new shuttle and bobbins but the bobbins won't interchange. Any ideas? 

[Waxed linen thread]

Are any of the tack or saddle makers using waxed linnen thread in their machines 

[Any pearson #6 owners using waxed thread]

I was curious if any of the pearson #6 owners were using the waxed thread in making their tack or saddles. Or I guess any machines 

[A question for the Pearson #6;experts]

Looking for the little screws that hold the spring clip in the pearson #6 shuttle  thread tension adjustment. Anyone know the size these are seems like someone must make tgem

Looking for the little screws that hold the spring clip in the pearson #6 shuttle  thread tension adjustment. Anyone have  any for sale or know a source 

[Anyone use #415 or #554 thread in machine]

Looking to see if anyone sews with this heavy thread in making hard use gear or is the #346  as heavy as you go 

[415 or 554 tgread]

Is anyone using this heavy of thread in the saddle or tack making side of things.

I could have bought one of the Chinese clones and had money left over but didn't and am glad  the Pearson is much simpler and more robust than  those and honestly easier to sew with. It is better machined than a landis#1 even though they look similar and in my opinion much superior to any other machine I've sewn on . It would be your favorite machine pretty quick I bet .

My plan is to get another machine and have one set up for light work only  and one for heavy sewing only with a good supply of needles on hand 

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

Ok hopefully that worked and I'll get more up. I'm still in the market for another machine and will hopefully get it within this next month or so 

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

I will try that to get them resized

I've been using #346 thread and a 230 needle. Even used a little bit of #346 top and #277 bottom. Have a few needles of 25 and 30 size for bigger thread but haven't tried it yet  

Your machine is nice. Mine is on a treadle stand but I've only used it as a hand crank so far my floor is not level and it tends to rock a little. I may build a platform for it  

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

I've been trying to get pictures of my pearson #6 and some of the stitching but so far I keep getting the picturesv th oo big and they won't post. I just changed phones and can't seem to get them to resize. Hopefully I can soon. I really like the stitch quality and simplicity of function as well as the precision you can sew with these machines

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

Owners and admirers of the Pearson #6 should have a group to share knowledge about these machines like the 441 people do 

[Anyone use 415 or 554 size thread]

Just wondering if anyone uses 415 or 554 thread and what for. Could you post some pictures of this thread used 

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

I use mine daily and am convinced it is far and away a better stitcher than any modern machine I've used  and I've sewn on most of them .   I wouldn't trade it for any of them 

[Who uses a Pearson #6]

I'll be in contact by email
