Wizcrafts Report post Posted December 27, 2023 While the Singer industrial sewing machines company is long gone, there are lots of aftermarket parts made in the Orient. The 100 year old machine uses the same tiny shuttle and bobbin as the last ones sold in the 1980s. It is a shoe and boot patcher, meant for short stitching jobs, like darning, re-sewing loose threads in shoe toe boxes, sewing patches over pockets, fixing purse strap tabs, and sewing cylindrical objects. I use T70 bonded thread in my short arm, small bobbin patchers. They can sew up to 1/4 inch of stuff that isn't too dense. Unfortunately, the stitch length suffers badly at this thickness. You get the longest stitches into 6 ounces of leather that isn't too grabby. Think of smooth shoe upper leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
