Looking at a pfaff 145-6C/D

Recommended Posts

This machine looks to be priced a little high but not sure. It has a aftermarket Jomida clutch motor on it but I dont anything about this motor, I was assuming I will want to install a servo after I get it if I do buy this one. Photo attached shows the style of bags I currently hand stitch, I realize with out a cyl arm I will be still doing some hand stitching on one panel of the gusset assembly but I am ok with this. Can I ask please would this machine stitch up to 3/8" with tex 130 and I would like to use a twist leather point needle I think. I have never used a sewing machine before so trying to learn all I can before I pull the switch and buy. I think this machine is a true compound walking foot so this is good.  Thanks so much for the help so far , I am learning a lot from you all.......wayne

update this machine was sold, missed by one day. He sold it for 600 cnd. Looks like he was high on his asking price by a long shot. KInd of funny I think he was one of these " I dont reply to is this still for sale?" good thing I didnt ask that as he forgot to delete the add. Note to grumpy sellers maybe buyers ask first for a reason:)This is becoming a real challenge to find a used machine as I am a ferry ride away from Vancouver so stuff gets snapped up before I get there but I am retired so no hurry really, just frustrating.Maybe with my location out in the middle of nowhere  I need to buy new - I may need to sell one of my testacles to make this happen however......wayne
