Members Singermania Posted August 2, 2011 Members Report Posted August 2, 2011 HI all, I'm on the hunt for information about an old machine again. Does anybody know what machine this is??? Quote
CowboyBob Posted August 2, 2011 Report Posted August 2, 2011 Steve, It's a Durkopp 17 Class.The factory got bombed during the war & they have been made since.Parts are real hard to find as the bobbincase is smaller than a singer 29. Here's a pic of mine you can just barely read the name. Bob Quote
Moderator Art Posted August 2, 2011 Moderator Report Posted August 2, 2011 Bob posted a pic of one he has last October or November. He said they didn't make them after the factory was bombed. You may have very well found one that was IN the factory when it was bombed. Art HI all, I'm on the hunt for information about an old machine again. Does anybody know what machine this is??? Quote
Members Singermania Posted August 2, 2011 Author Members Report Posted August 2, 2011 Very funny Art, one day I'll find a machine you guys don't know. I have to be careful as the more beaten up the machine the more I want it.!!! Quote
Members Singermania Posted August 2, 2011 Author Members Report Posted August 2, 2011 HI Bob, thanks for the reply, I didn't realise from the piccie that it was a bootmakers machine, but I can see it from your picture, even the multidirectional sewing. You must have quite a collection. Have you ever put all the pictures online?? Regards Steve Quote
