ok. Thanks

Ok. Nice info. Thanks

Thanks Zac. Useful information. I'll keep it in mind.

Does anyone knows anything about this machine? What thickness of leather does it sew and if it has small or medium bobbin? Is it good to sew handbags and wallets?

How could i make the same to a 133k8 i´m interested right now? Could you say what tools did you use as well the mechanical restoration you did? Also could you inform how it is to work with this machine ( what type of projects do you sew with it, the lenght of the stitch, etc). Is it easy to find spare parts to this machine, and does it cause too muchh trouble?

Thanks a lot for the advice. Now i know a little more about this machines. I have a few questions more: -what thickness of leather they usually sew? - Can they handle veg tan leather? -Also the seller as a Necchi 840 wich i saw a post but i didn't understand if this machine sews veg tan leather, and if it's at the same level of Adler 069 & Seiko LSC-8BV?

The other two are also good for this (edge binding) or are not so good? It will be my first sewing machine so all the knowledge you can share about this technical stuff will save me at least of some sorrow ,

Many thanks for the time to explain it. As for the condition of the machines they both are in condition to work with 6 months guarantee by law. They are at a sewing machine store right now. Also there is Pfaff 335 available but the owner of the store is going to change it for a servo motor. You, see the man knows a lot of machines but not so much of leathercraft so i felt the necessity of being guided in some way what will be the proper machine for me. My first choice was to get the Seiko but i wanted to inform myself first...

Ok. Thank you both. Because i have the possibility of buying one of these machines i am very interested in knowing what's the best catch. Although in another forum someone told me that whenever you can get an Adler, you should take it because they are the best around according to some specialist. Could someone clarify on that? At least for the best choice between these two ( Adler & Seiko) Thanks, Alex

Hi everyone, First i want to thank for this wonderful forum for all its useful information. I'm about to buy my first leather sewing machine and i have the opportunity to choose between a Adler 069 and a Seiko LSC-8BV ( second hand both, ready to work). Does anyone wich one of these two machines are better to sew veg tan leather wallets and handbags? Thanks in advance, Alex
