Sorry i did not see your first post but looks like you done well with that purchase. Nice clean looking machine. so is it sewing well? I see you found out some parts were on the wrong way?? That will last you probably another 100yrs . Looks like your missing your bobbin winder or did you take it off also?

No problems mate and welcome to the forum.

Oh! that looks nice Soren... I like that orange inside....

This looks like it will be a interesting project.....

Well done jeannie, yur gettin there.

does it feed better then??

Hi Jeannie, sorry for taking so long in getting back..... the first picture.

You could maybe ask member Danishman?? he might have that part for sale?

Check the parts list on your machine and compare numbers? I think they could possibly mach?? The 141/541 plate is 91-010-823-45 Just checked and they don´t match sorry dude.

This might work??? https://www.ebay.de/itm/Pfaff-141-142-143-541-542-543-u-A-Industrie-Nahmaschine-STIRNDECKEL/223674927979?hash=item3414108b6b:g:-8YAAOSwMQ1cR1me

The small one from ebay and the larger one from Ali express.

I dont have any setup for binding at the moment but here is the foot and binder that i use, i am no expert at this remember Lol.... And the Pfaff one has been heavily modified by the previous owner

Hi, Yes that looks like it will fit. You just need the binder and the inside foot. did you see if you could lift your foot up a little? It should be the wing nut over at the back at the end of the bar for adjusting?

Hi Jeannie, Normally there is a different foot that is used for binding, sorta like the feed dog, with the finger on the left? but you seem to have another type foot on? anyway i was going to say maybe that foot is not lifting up enough to let the binding feed through??? not sure but that could be the problem. On the black plate there is normally a rack with fingers to let the binding pass through and not get twisted. that´s the two holes furthest right, then two long screws to hold the binder on. Ill get you a picture...

Hi There, The part you pointed to in the picture that is broken is the problem, that is why your foot is not lifting. You will need to find another part the same. Oh and that leather disk on the tension disks goes underneath to raise the disks up a little so when it is down the disks are flat and not tilted.

Well done Rob, Parts look great.

Its no from your 29k Thats for sure!. Ill bet they had needles in there or something like Folker said??

I am with JLS here, I think a Pfaff 335 (or similar) would be better for wallets. Think about the size of the needles and thread also??

Hi Kovac, I found this on the net, it is probably what you are looking for?

It is a iron for marking a crease along the edge. " Filet Maroquinier

I think the guy is not familiar with it yet and has not got it set up right. If you see the video from nippy it feeds through like a normal skiver does.

The guy in the video said 2500 dollars, and the knifes around 50 bucks for 6. I reckon you will go through a lot of knifes?? that could be the money hole with this??

try it on your finger, twice would come out at the same place of entry, one and a half at the opposite end of entry
