    I use poly. And I have hand sewn with my machine thread. I am right handed and have not had any trouble with unraveling.

    Looking for a single head saddlers knife. Looking for something used. I already know that Barnsley has one new. Thanks

    I live in New England. My shop is in the second story of a barn. I have 4 machines in my shop as well as a crease and splitter. I have no problem with rust. I would recommend insulation for the garage and a dehumidifier. The humidity is the biggest problem for us New Englanders.

    Very cool thanks
  9. Old Coach Saddlery
    Did you find the problem?

    Here are the photos of the thread and bobbins

    Maybe have someone else run the machine while you look and listen. Better yet remove the belt and have them hand wheel the machine. I know with the bull there is a bearing that runs in a groove on the hand wheel that has to be greased. Not sure on the juki.

    They are pre wound bobbins for a commercial Juki with 2 needles. They used the machines to sew banners. I do not know the model #

    I have 12 one pound spools of # 69 bonded nylon sewing machine thread. White in color and several boxes of bobbins. I would like $60 for the whole lot. Buyer to pay shipping. I will be posting pictures

    Interesting. I would pull the inspection plate from the back of the machine and see if it gets louder. Also look for a loose part or screw that might have fallen or gotten wedged. I agree that most machines do not get oiled enough.

    Looks good. I like the rustic look of it.

    I was able to negotiate a deal. She now sits in my shop waiting to be cleaned and checked. Ordered a few minor parts. As soon as I have my needles we wiser if she will stitch. Fingers and everything thing else crossed. Lol

    Thanks so much I have experience with the singer patchers but not a big Adler. Makes good sense. Very helpful.
  19. Old Coach Saddlery
    Wiz I am going to look at the machine on Tuesday. It doesn’t have a needle to test it . I do have needles for a 29-4 patcher, do you think it might work just to see if it will see?
  20. Old Coach Saddlery
    Very impressive bio. Welcome .

    I believe there is already a master saddlery school in Maryland that holds classes twice a year. But it is always nice to have another option. You can always learn something new. You never stop discovering new ways and skills.

    Thanks wiz. I was going to offer considerably less. But I definitely want to lay eyes on her first.

    So I am contemplating yet another sewing machine. I have had Singer 29-4 in the past. But found this Adler 30-70. I have made arrangements to go see how rough it really is. I know parts are pricey but where in the USA do I find parts for it. I like that it can use a heavier thread Since I intend on using it to repair English riding boots. Thought and suggestions? ebay # 12376717

    You can also get English stirrup buts from Booth & Co. He is on the east coat just outside Boston
