CustomDoug Report post Posted September 9, 2012 Hi guys, there is a Mercury "Industrial" (actually looks the part) sewing machine that I have access to for dirt cheap. It is supposedly a model# M1110 and comes with table, legs, clutch motor, thread stand, light. I can not find any info on this particular machine. I know it's not a walking foot machine so I'm assuming it's a high speed straight lockstitch machine. I would only be sewing thin leather linings or wallet interiors with it, as well as cloth interiors for bags. But I'd also want to do buttonholes with a high-shank button hole attachment that I'll be getting. Problem is... I don't know if it's a high-shank machine or not. Does anyone know? Or know of a way of telling? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CustomDoug Report post Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) BTW, the body of this machine is pretty much exactly like the Juki DDL-5550, if any info could be deciphered from that. The buttonhole attachment fits Singer 31-15's and a ton of other high-shank makes and models. Edited September 9, 2012 by CustomDoug Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted September 10, 2012 Doug, It's a light duty tailor type of machine.Some parts might be hard to get. It's best to stay away from a Mercury unless it's cheap enough that you can use the table. I found the old dealers price from 1995 HTH Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
