Hi folks, I was surfing Youtube and I came across this particular machine that I've never seen before. Looks to be some type of manual needle and awl machine. Does anyone know anything about this? Please see the links below:

It's a Rafflenbeul outsoling machine. They seem to be more common in Europe than elsewhere. I desperately want one but I've never seen one in AU or NZ.

As with most outsolers, they're good for boot and shoe soles, but basically useless for anything else because they have such a tiny throat depth.

Googling for "Rafflenbeul doppelmaschine" will get you some info on them but the vast majority of it is in German.
