  1. I've been to that museum having lived in Avon MT for a spell. Excellent!
  2. I actually found Tony on FB. I sent him an IM. Don't know if he'll get back to me. It was worth a try. Yes, i was hoping someone would have a manual and I could scrounge a pdf of it. Definitely a beast, it is! Works good tho. Thinking of putting a servo on it. Right now I'm wondering what size servo tho. Mostly gonna use it for belting & straps. For the price, I couldn't walk away . . .
  3. Thanks Near as I can figure this is a dead link. Thanks anyway
  4. I looked around here for awhile but couldn't find a link to a manual for the Luberto #9. I just picked this up and it would be nice to have a manual if someone has one they can copy or link a file or something
  5. I know this thread is old but . . . I have a flat bed for one of these I'd sell someone. I used to have one of these. They are a needle and awl machine with an extremely narrow throat. set up right they make one of the most beautiful stitches you will ever see. For belts or holsters they'd be alright but, again, the throat is extremely narrow. Limited use. Some guys swear by them for sole stitching on boots & shoes.
  6. don't know if you still need it but I have one I could get you a picture of.
  7. are you looking for a singer 97-10

  8. I actually watched this video, Wiz, before I posted. Thanks tho; I should have mentioned it but failed to. I'm not crazy about the automatic oiler. I wonder if there is any way to oil the thing by hand? I rarely see fast enough for an automated oiling system. I had a Singer bottom feed with automated oiler and never did like it. Sold it years ago.. Simran
  9. I do a lot of canvas and leather sewing of bags of all sorts for Redezvous, bicycling, camping, canoeing and other outdoor activities. been doing it for a lot of years I don't make any money at this but I have a good time and it keeps me busy in the winter during the dark cold winter months. I currently have 3 machines: a Singer 7 class flatbed, singer 45 class cylinder bed and a Thompson Miniwalker. I am wanting to replace the Thompson with a little sturdier machine for doing most of the canvas sewing & sewing some lighter leather to the canvas for trim, pockets etc. I have found a Chandler C-75/ Mitsubishi LU-105 (one in the same I believe) for 300.00; just the head. I'm wondering if anyone has any first hand information on this machine as far as how well it will fit into my arsenal of machines for what I'm doing. I've looked at new machines and I am just not serious enough about this to make a business out of it; therefor can't justify the price of a new machine. Thanks for any help out there. Simran
