I found this extensive list of italian suppliers. http://www.shoeinfonet.com/machinery/multi%20mach/EU/multi%20mach_it.htm Perhaps someone there will have one? Probably the best place to look?

Thanks. Any idea on makers, or technical names? I would like to keep a look out. It's something that takes a lot of time in my projects and if I could find one it would be a good investment.

I'm wondering what this machine is called. It's basically a walking foot hole punch machine that makes an alternating dot pattern. It's a dream for now, eventually I must have one. skip to 1:32

Thanks for the reply's everyone! Shoot me an email. I'll make you a deal. lehsplymfg@gmail.com Carson.

Hi everyone. I've been just creeping on here for a while, I'm going to try and log on more as an active user. I wanted to share my most recent work. I make custom leather bike saddles and I'm starting out on my own as of this month after three years of part time work. You can see some more pictures at my site

Sorry, I wrote that wrong it is set to 3/32"

So I've consulted the manual for this machine. It says the timing should be adjusted as such. After the needle bar has traveled all the way down. Raise it 3/16" or to the indicator mark on the needle bar (there is no mark on my machine) then the bobbin hook should be centered on the eyelet of the needle 1/16" above. This is how the Left needle and bobbin are spaced and it works fine about 95% of the time. I've attempted to match the same timing and have got them in dam near identical yet they still don't work. I've pushed the right bobbin so close to the needle that in the full down position it's resting against the side of the lower portion of the bobbin. Any further away It won't grab the thread. Any closer and the bobbin case just pushes the needles over and farther away from the hook. Another note I might point out is the right bobbin is a little more worn than the other, the hook is dulled slightly, I don't know if thats a critical issue. I would assume no since It worked fine in the 1/8" setting.

I have a Singer 52W19 post bed Twin needle with wheel foot. I bought it with 3/16 spacing. I changed it to 1/8th successfully. I've now got lost trying to change it back. It's been a nightmare so far. I've sunk 10 hours into trying to get the right bobbin to work. I've got it to work a few times on thicker harder leathers I have (5oz). However as soon as I switch to something thinner 2-3oz the right side goes to shit. If anyone has any experience timing and adjusting the bobbins on these machines, It would keep me from throwing it out out the window. Thanks Carson

Looking for a bell knife skiver machine. I'm on a budget. If anyone has anything please let me know.
