Members gavingear Posted August 1, 2009 Members Report Posted August 1, 2009 Here's a very rare machine! This is a full-industrial portable machine ideally suited for leather work. What makes this machine rare is the custom portable case that makes this machine portable, as well as the Dayton 52:1 gearmotor. This gearmotor slows the machine down and multiplies the torque this motor produces (52x!! torque). Furthermore- this motor features a one-way sprague clutch meaning that moving the handwheel is effortless (not the case with belt-driven reducers). This machine has been gone over, lubed, tuned, new belt, and has almost no signs of use. Works perfectly and makes a perfect stitch. An ideal machine that does not take up much space. Asking $900. + shipping/packing fee (negotiable, but non-trivial for this heavy machine). If you are picking up locally, I have a workstand that I can throw in, and I'll show you how to setup and use the machine. Features: - Integrated thread stand and guide - Walking foot, needle feed - Variable stitch length - Reverse - Power switch and foot pedal Included: - Machine and case - Instruction manual (shows age) and service/parts manual (good condition) - Extra brand new belt - Zipper/welting foot set, and standard foot set Pictures: Please see my ebay account, 100% positive feedback for reference: http://myworld.ebay.com/gavingear I thought I would list here before putting this on ebay.

Cobra Steve Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Boy what a gem! I have been in the Sewing Machine business for almost 37 years and this is the 2nd one that I have seen. The first was on a Pfaff 145, and it to, worked great! Thanks for the trip down memory lane! Steve
