C, That Seiko made to sew heavier with the big flywheel. Ferdinand did that on a few machines to give them a lot of torque and punching power. I saw one set up to sew t webs on a hockey goalie glove. Was sewing thru 4 and 5 layers of leather. Did a great job. Cleaned up and sewing $1,200.00 easy. glenn

yep grab it now!!! glenn

Anyone got a large wooden drawer for a Long arm Singer shoepatcher treadle stand? I am trying to spec the drawer. I only have the small drawers. The long arm treadle stands had bigger drawers in them. I need a finished length width and height. Thanks in advance. glenn

Dannymac, You are correct the Rapid E is a 317. The 309 was and earlier machine. Thanks. glenn

Basically the 112W139 was a double needle version of the 111W155. I think the 111W might be just a bit heavier in what it can sew. Mr. Kovar would know better than me on that one. glenn

#207 a little thick. Only run it on the needle thread. or go to #138 on both top and bottom. glenn

Rapid E? The Cadillac of curved sole stitchers. Parts , needles and awls you can get from Gateway Shoe in St. Louis. glenn

order either a Hirose or Cerliani hook. They are the best generic hooks made. If you want a genuine, be prepared to pay dearly for a Genuine Pfaff hook. Like $300- $400.00 glenn

C, Canadian Post is on strike and has been for at least a few weeks. Probably why they are not shipping to Canada at this moment. glenn

The pitch of the bolt is 9/32"x 28. I am out of bolts at this time. glenn

Samer, send me a few pics of the front of your machine where the wheel goes please. These parts are not cheap just so you know. glenn

Like I said, way overrated for a sewing machine the Sailrite is. glenn

You need to get a manual on the 205-6. That has that adjustment in it. I think it is different than on a 205-370. glenn

pics please to start. glenn

Juki in everything but name. Great machine! glenn
