Thanks for the response! Mike

Is the light sensitive control how all these servo motors control the speed via the foot peddle? Specifically is this what i would get if purchasing a CB227R or Techsew 2700....or is this a issue only with the motors Cobra use?

Thanks.....Its worth an evening drive to take a look. If they are not willing to budge on price I'll have to save a little and go with the CB. Mike

Anybody using a durkopp Alder 69-373 machine ? I'm looking at this one on eBay and would like some input. I'm looking for a light/medium cylinder arm unit for camping gear and sports gear modifications/repair (sons is a hockey goalie). http://www.ebay.com/itm/Durkopp-Adler-69-373-Industrial-Sewing-Machine-with-Walking-Foot-/350565074606?pt=BI_Sewing_Machines&hash=item519f4e86ae#ht_8969wt_689 This unit is only a 1 hour drive so I could get a demo prior to purchasing. It looks like for an extra $300+$200 shipping I could get a cowboy or Techsew. Thanks

Is it a 206rb-5? Does it have a servo motor or ant gear reduction? Head only or is it complete with table? Thanks, Mike
