CowboyBob Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) Wow!That sure looks like one we stretched years ago.My cousin is a machinist & we would strip all the parts out just take the shafts & bars to him,no needle plate & he was so good that when we put the needle bar in & went to line up the hole in the needle plate they hardly ever needed to be adjusted.He also put some allen screws on leftside for adjustment & made the casting a tight fit around the heavy walled tubing that we used to extend the arm. So, what size thread are you using?That will determine your needle size. On this machine you need to wrap the thread around the second tension(lower one) 1&1/2x We have a manual,needles & most other parts too. Bob Just for the heck of it could you tilt the machine back & take a pic of the bottom side & post it?
