I was wondering which state of the USA the abovenamed whip collector lived before he deceased. Was it Texas?

I am about to be a proud owner of the above machine built in the 1930's in Scotland. I have sourced a copy of the manual through the internet. I noticed that it has a special threading route for darning. What type of darning would that be and what type of material? If anyone uses this type of machine for darning I would very much like to hear about it and have a photo posted of a darned item.
