Nice find,I've never seen an early tension like that,did all the older ones have the higher mounted bobbin winders too?

as far as I figured most (if not all) Dürkopp patchers have the bobbin winder mounted that way. However some were gear driven and some had a rubber tire running on the hand wheel.

C,

Interested to see how you progress goes on this machine.  I have not started on mine yet.  Adler's to do first.  Take lots of pics.

I will try but I seldom have the camera on hand when digging my hands in dirty machine parts but I will try to shoot some pictures. ;)

What an absolute beauty :thumbsup: That  emblem in the centre  would look great in gold against the black.

I have a picture of the stand emblem from different machine (worn of paint but a lot better than on my stand) and I think I will try to replicate it as good as possible but I´m no artist with paint so not sure how it will turn out. :wacko:

Yep, gold will look good, I can see it now. You'll be fine, take your time, no rush ,  use Q tips ( ear buds)  instead of brushes on the lettering and other fiddly bits , less mess, no stray bristles to mess up your hard work.

I just recalled an old thread where I have posted pictures of another GÖRICKE patcher that once sold on Ebay:

https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/61501-shoepatcher-on-steriods/?do=findComment&comment=403149

I have to take a closer looks at the writing on my machine. Unfortunately very hard to read... :wacko:

 

EDIT:
with some black light and editig... Writing say "ORIGINAL DÜRKOPP SCHUHMACHER MASCHINE"

Maybe I can find a close enough font for making a stencil to reproduce that writing. :Lighten:

A little side project - this press came with the Dürkopp patcher. First two pics are from the classified and show the condition "as found".

Holds tools with M6 thread on top and 12mm base on the bottom. Little fund raiser I think... ;) Maybe I´l make a wooden base for it.

Very nice C.  Great job on the rebuild!  Electrolysis tank?   No name on the press?

Yes, electrolysis and a wire brush for the last paint flakes that came of easily after electrolysis!

No, no name on the press.
