Can I become some of the wooden pins for this machine

Sounds like a potentially very painful process...

Sorry...couldn't resist... :)

I have no idea what this is but if you contact Walter Roth on this site, I bet he could tell you what it is.

Good luck.

God Bless.

This looks like a sole patcher or a inside sole patcher after the McKay style not sure but this is what I think you can contact shoesystemsplus.com and give the a model number see what they can tell you about it if anyone cam help you I think it be them.

Good Luck!

I realise it is a long time after the initial posting, I think it is a pegging machine, a square awl makes a square hole in a boot sole, then the machine head moves over and fills the hole with a square wooden peg, used in boot making instead of stiching, the wooden pegs are still available from a german company called "Blau Ring" (sp?} they are used a lot in making american cowboy boots, and wartime Soviet and German military boots if anyone has one in the UK and wants to sell it, I might be interested

If anyone has a pegging machine (I haven't) I have a supply of the steel square awls made by Geo Barnsley, I'll send you some for the cost of postage, if you want to get rid of one, contact me

I had a McKay lockstitch machine similar to that in my shoe repair shop. Mine was Landis. It sews the sole of dress shoes from the inside of the shoe. If you have a flatbed for it you can use it to stitch just about anything from harneass to holsters.
