  1. A darner heavy duty!! glenn
  2. Good luck. Contact Robert Collier at Collier Equipment in Alabama. glenn
  3. It would be. The 969 is one of the heaviest machines made! The dealer did not know what he was doing!!! What was he thinking??? The 869 much better for your application. glenn
  4. Set stitch length to 0 before you time it. glenn
  5. Hi Shoepatcher

    I have been chatting with Constabulary and he recommended getting in touch with you.

    I have a Patent Elastic boot patcher that is missing the shuttle. The rest of the machine is in good order as far as I can tell and I am keen to get it going. Would you possibly have or know of where I can purchase a small shuttle for this machine?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Regards

      Hi Glen 

      Thanks for getting back to me. Above is a link to my conversation with Constabulary which includes photos of the machine. 

      The fence is 7mm high The shuttle area is 18.5mm wide. I don't have the depth at present and the machine isn't handy. I will have to wait until close to Xmas to get that measurement. Any help is greatly appreciated.

      Regards

      Clair,

      Sorry for the delay in contacting you.  I never say your reply until now.  I will wait for you to send other measurements.

  6. You have a patent elastic machine. This became the Claes. I will check to see if i have any. I think you have either the small or medium bobbin. Give me a day or 2 to research it. You are located where? glenn
  7. Yes it is. The Singer 153 was out first. glenn
  8. Do not need the screw that I have ever found. Just the plug. glenn
  9. Yes it was. glenn
  10. Consew 227 parts are copies of Singer 153 parts. Should be interchangeable. glenn
  11. Patent Elastic was the early name for the Claes I believe. They started in 1869. There have been about 15 plus manufactured of the shoepatcher with the early design like you see in front of you. Singer came out with a shoepatcher in 1877 and their design was new and unique. Adler came out with the 30 class in 1900 which was a copy of the UFA/ 29 class. Adler had an earlier design like the old shoepatchers which was a 29 class. I have one. Bradbury had a few shoepatcher designs starting in 1872. glenn
  12. needle two small for 138 thread, Go to a 140/#22. glenn
  13. First question. Is safety clutch disengaged? If not, it is out of time and you must time each hook separately. glenn
  14. The end cam is worn. Replace it to take out the play. glenn
  15. You need DA part #0667105100 which is the stud for synchronizer. Remove plastic plug and tap the stud in place. This is what the synchronizer mounts on. glenn
