Warms my heart, thanks. I had a Bernina 217 commercial zig zag, a Consew 206RB-1 (until I had to bring it back to the shop for a sale) and now the 211A reg. bobbin walking foot with reverse.

Like I tell folks, I sell the paint brushes, but I'm no Picasso. I do simple repairs and patches on Judo/Jui-Jujitsu gi and kimonos, patches, and hemming pants for the most part. I always find things to sew up, and used the machine last at home a few days ago actually.

My next thing I want to do is work more with the embroidery machine line that we sell, so I can learn more about it, doing it, and teaching embroidery. This means I better have some kind of a handle on the equipment and software, and I'm on the path. Just need more time, and people will be able to see shirts, towels, duffle bags, you name it, with embroidery at my home.

Thanks to everyone that has posted the equipment you use. And pics were a plus! Some don't know about so many different brands available. I know I keep seeing new ones. Most newbies just know of Singer and Kenmore from what they might have seen at home or grandmas. Lolol...Keep em coming please!!

Hi all,

Like many others here I have to many machines right now and I am going to sell some of them (if I find the time to do it). In my one man`s shop I have a DA 267-373 Efka DC 1600, a Pfaff 345-H3 Cobra servo/speed reducer, a Singer 29K-72 with a clutch, 441 clone with Efka DC1550, old Sandt clicking machine and a Italian Alpha skiving machine.

Backup and for sale: Adler`s 204-64 Efka vario stop, 105-25 Clutch/speed reducer. 5-27 el. controlled clutch/speed reducer, 30-15 black on treadle (x 2), 30-7 green-12 volt Dc and treadle, Singer 236W-100 post/clutch, Pfaff 491 post Efka variostop and a complete shoe repair shop with German machines (every machine, even key copying machines and cash register, every thing you need to start including materials)

And I bought another big machine some days ago, it looked allot smaller in the picture than in real live. (I bought it over the phone) Its a big industrial Runo foam saw for cutting mattresses ( factory saw) Its a bit to big for my use, but its a very good machine (band knife) Anybody need one I could trade it for a smaller model or something else. he he :)

Thanks

At my home shop, most of my sewing is canvas, Sunbrella, and vinyl, so my machines reflect that, although some could be used for thin leathers. I make fitted covers for home and farm equipment use out of used vinyl (discarded cotton module tarps, truck tarps, and billboard fabrics), and repair awnings, tents, tarps, boat covers, pool covers and the like. Most of my sewing is on used, often dirty, and sometimes hard to feed slippery materials. I do a large portion of my sewing outside. The machines that I use are a mixture of industrial and household machines.

Singer 111W153 combination feed (clutch motor)

Singer 29K70 universal feed (treadle)

Singer 31-15 w/roller foot (treadle)

Singer 216G zigzag (handcrank or treadle)

Singer 306W24 zigzag (treadle)

Singer 66-1 (handcrank)

My machines aren't the heavy duty leather stitchers, because I build nylon gear, but here is what I use. Juki 1182 double needle with split bar. Juki 1508 as my dedicated binding machine. Juki 2810-7 as my main straight stitch machine. Consew 227R cylinder arm machine, Artisan 618SC, and Adler 167GK-373.dcbe92b4-ad3f-4f83-9654-4f3705a4fc60_zps981a2ef5.jpgf70a2065-981d-4392-92ec-eec2991a4c0d_zps8a50a573.jpgd334e1b0-e6c7-4321-83ac-ff51b2078656_zpsc860f241.jpg3a33b49a-24e3-46c2-8b85-283cba64291b_zps37663d4c.jpg67b8ba76-220e-4ce7-9fe2-76b73c03b2f7_zps1aec6e56.jpg20ad734d-6114-4279-9ed3-6e19f45aa717_zpsace857f5.jpg
