Constabulary

I would assume a Singer 45K clone made by NECCHI in Italy. Why NECCHI? Because their hand wheel is distinctive but thats just what I recall. I´m sure Singer45K parts and accessories will work with this machines. Machine has reverse by the way.

what about STRIMA in Poland - they seem to have lots of Pfaff parts Or check with Nähtechnik Kaiserslautern GbR Im Erfenbacher Tal 16 A 67661 Kaiserslautern Germany Phone: 0049 (0) 631 3507818 Fax: 0049 (0) 631 3508202 E-Mail: info [at ]naehtechnik-kl.com Their website does not exist (anymore or not yet) but I bought parts for my Pfaff 345 from them and they were WAY (!!!) cheaper than any other Pfaff dealer I contacted. But not sure if they ship outside Germany. They are listed as Pfaff dealer on the Pfaff website too: https://www.pfaff-industrial.de/db-partneradressen/europe/germany/03-dap-dealer-ntk

Thread path looks good. Your tension unit looks a bit different to what I have seen. There should be 2 screws - one is for the spring rest (front screw) and the rear screw is holding the tension post in place. If you have to adjust the regulator spring travel you have to loosen the front screw. The spring rest usually it a curved metal tab that is mounted behind the silver disc with the long nut. You can slide the curved tab back and forth when you have loosen the screw. Check if you have that cured tab but maybe the spring rest looks different on your machine - can´t really tell from the pictures. One more thing - do you have a knee lifter for lifting the presser foot on your machine? It sometimes can happen that you slightly push the knee lifter (even if you don´t want to) while sewing and that already can cause a top tension release and the thread knot shows up on the underside. If you are using a foot pedal for lifting the presser foot take your foot off the pedal while sewing.

II would check the thread path and maybe try to in crease the top tension a little bit and probably check if the thread regulating spring is well adjusted. (just a guess). See picture for regulating the spring

Not possible to explain this any better - again great video , Uwe This works for any sewing machine rotating hook who have a bobbin case opener similar to the one shown in the video not just Juki 341 (Pfaff, Singer, Consew, Seiko, Adler... you name it) so it´s worth watching.

very cool bag - very nice texture - I really like it

See my above post and the red circle - seems the parts are present - in the circle I see the shuttle race, shuttle hook and race - missing parts (or outside the picture) are the screw for the brace and the spacer. EDIT: Mr. 45K hit the send button a moment earlier EDIT II: seems the spacer is still installed so the only parts would be the screw for the brace / spring that fold the shuttle race in place.

@MikeSC - you should share receipts - yummy haven´t even heard of tapatalk (have to google it) ... EDIT: seems I don´t need it

really nice machines for this kind of work and for decorative stitching are machines with continuous wheel feed like Singer 110w and the like but they have a very limited stitch length.

As I said before - reinstall all parts and make sure the small tab of the bobbin case is inside the notch (not left or right of it) and then check again because thats how we can se if something is binding under regular sewing conditions.

are you sure the tab was in side the notch? if not try it. Other than that I would also think it a set screw that blocks the hook. Seems gear #48 is not attached with set screws so check set screws #57. EDIT: You can downlaod the parts lits here: Parts List Juki 341

The first thing I would do is put back on the throat plate and make sure it is correctly installed and then make a Video again. Running the machine w/o throat plate the as you show in the Video will probably cause a binding when the "uncontrolled" bobbin case hits the bobbin case opener. Make sure the little tab on the bobbin case sits inside the notch of the throat plate and then try again.

Better let some professional check the machine if you don´t know what I mean. Maybe this engineer manual will help you a bit: Juki 245 Engineer's Manual

First thing I usually check is if the needle / hook timing is correct - when you hear a clicking sound - is it possible that the hook tip hits the needle at a too low point or does the needle hit the hook somewhere? Is the hook grabbing the thread loop at all? Any chance that you can post a a video?

There for sure is a market for these things! If this case cost $50-$80 I would buy it in a heart beat. I think you should be able to get $200 - $250 (rough guess) for it - if not more if someone really is looking for one. This case is really in pristine condition for a 100 years old military leather case! You may not sell it this month or within 6 months but I´m sure you can sell it but as often you have to be patient. Sell it fast for a lower price or if you are patient you can make more money.

NO - totally different machine but our member UWE had designed one for the CB4500 / 441 type machines that one could fit the CB3200. Check with him - he posted in this thread (see above).

talking sewing machine scammers and the like. Few days ago I googled for LW member UWE`s clever flat bed attachments and came across this: https://www.golatest.top/ut335v-flatbed-table-attachment-for-pfaff-335-vintage-old-casting-p-19349.html Welcome to a digitalized World Better watch your (internet) steps...

seems they are using pictures from other companies or from Ebay and prices are kind of low. Sample: http://permatasewing.com/products.php?product=Singer-108-w-20-cylinder-arm-style-Unison I just set up a Singer 108w my self so I know the they use pictures from Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Singer-108-w-20-cylinder-arm-style-Unison-Feed-FOR-binding-runs-great/230958844346?hash=item35c63849ba:g:iu8AAMXQueRRXwIQ So I would be careful with this Company.

I have an informative user manual in German language - when you send me your Email by PM is can forward it to you. Its not the one linked above , its an older one with very detailed information - but in German language.

No - sorry I´ll keep it. Check with Darren - seems this is a good solution!

LW Member UWE made an excellent video of how to time the Consew 225 - the Dürkopp 239 and several other machines are similar but not 100% identical but this video should give you an idea how to time the hook:

Could be any type of Pfaff flat bed, post bed or cylinder arm machine - I once bought it as used spare part because I though it could be useful one day.

I guess it´s a 239. The Dürkopp 239 shares a lot of similarities with the Singer 111G156 but I think yours has a larger hook but some parts are even the same.

Some pictures - maybe they help a bit

These are for swing away roller foot mountings. I don`t think they will properly work as they need a bracket that holds the foot in place. I think you cannot tighten the foot screw enough to hold them in place on your machine since you don´t have the bracket on the needle bar. I can post pictures later. EDIT: Okay - did not read so you already know you need a bracket Anyway, I´ll post pictures later.
