Members MecGen Posted March 23 Members Report Posted March 23 Hello Everyone I am looking for a "Juki service video" that seems to be quite a few years old. I have found a small part of it on YouTube, but there no reference to where I could get a full copy. I found a reference to a machine maker, Tony Luberto. It is unclear if he is still in business. I did find an old post on this forum with his name on it and a phone number. I haven't tried calling yet (it's Saturday night) and if he is out of business, I would respect his privacy. Anyone know the video I am talking about ? Have a copy ? Know if Tony's still around ? Thanks in advance. Screenshot of the YouTube video Quote

The last model he made was called the Windham Cub, which was sold to Weaver Leather and rebranded as the Weaver Cub.

Members Constabulary Posted March 23 Members Report Posted March 23 IIRC they have once sold this video on VHS - not sure though. If they put it up for sale on CD-R I´m sure a lot of folks would like to buy it.

I did find a post on this forum from 2021 that seemed to suggest he was back in business. I might take a shot at calling the number tomorrow anyways.

I guess I have to make one then lol. Seriously, I am in the process of stripping down a Juki 563 to absolute bare case. I took a reference video so I do have documentation for the reassembling. It's always best to have a second way of looking at things. I took a LOT of measurements and recorded grub screw and wick positions, so I should be ok. Thank you Quote
