Collar Town Report post Posted March 1, 2014 Hi All! SOOO excited to finally be able to join! I can see myself on here for hours! Question: Does anyone have a contact for bar tacking machine repair and service, in Ontario? Also, can a bar tacker be changed from 1 inch triangle pattern to a 2 inch box stitch? I read something about the cams being changed, and that it would cost quite a bit, anyone have a rough estimate? Thank you, Maggie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you, Maggie It would probably help if you gave some information about your machine. Make, model. Check the banner ads at the top of the page. One is in Montreal. Not real close, but avoids shipping your machine to USA if you need to ship to a dealer. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have one yet, but would like to purchase a used one, however I'm worried about finding someone that knows the ins and outs of these machines.

Northmount Report post Posted March 1, 2014 Hi Tom! I don't have one yet, but would like to purchase a used one, however I'm worried about finding someone that knows the ins and outs of these machines. Leather Machine Company, Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines and Techsew as advertisers here (see top banner ads). Plus, Gregg at Keystone Sewing and Dan at Campbell-Randall are contributing dealer-members. Techsew is in Montreal. Most dealers also have used machines, depending on recent trades or acquisitions. Edit: Give them a call so you can discuss. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
