Members Old Coach Saddlery Posted July 12, 2014 Members Report Posted July 12, 2014 I acquired this rotary punching machine a few years ago from Eli at Landis. I have been unable to find any literature on it. Here is what I know. It was distributed by C.S. Osborne and sold for $40.00 back in the day. I know this because Osborne was kind enough to send me a copy of the ad. It is fun to use and, since I love old leather equipment, I think very cool. Does anyone know where I might find more literature of information on this fine piece of equipment? Quote
Members Hi Im Joe Posted July 12, 2014 Members Report Posted July 12, 2014 Man they don't make stuff like that anymore. That is super cool. Sorry I can't help you with any info...just wanted to stop by and show my appreciation. Quote
Members Sylvia Posted July 13, 2014 Members Report Posted July 13, 2014 Wow, that has to be old. It looks like some of the Mid 1800s sewing machines. Have you considered asking CS Osborne about it.. perhaps they have some old literature on it. Quote
Members MuddyClearWaters Posted July 20, 2014 Members Report Posted July 20, 2014 OO thats really cool. Quote
Members Big Sioux Saddlery Posted July 21, 2014 Members Report Posted July 21, 2014 I believe Weavers has a modern version of this. I want one REALLY bad but I don't have a couple grand lying around begging to be spent. I bid on one at a sale a few years ago; I let it go because I thought it was too high. At the time I didn't realize Weavers had jacked the price several hundred dollars in a year's time. Quote
Members leatherquestions Posted August 3, 2014 Members Report Posted August 3, 2014 You might try Pilgrim Machine and sewe if they have anything about it. When I had my shoe repair business all my equip was antique (by many generations) and they were very helpful with literature. Quote
Members Old Coach Saddlery Posted August 4, 2014 Author Members Report Posted August 4, 2014 I hadn't thought of them. I had gotten a few things from them in the past for my Singer 29-4. Thanks Quote
Members billybopp Posted August 4, 2014 Members Report Posted August 4, 2014 Is there any chance you could shoot and post some video of this bad-boy in operation? It really looks fascinating. Bill Quote

Members Old Coach Saddlery Posted August 8, 2014 Author Members Report Posted August 8, 2014 Okay, I'm not a real tech person. I'm sure and can find a friend or two who can help. I will add it to the list of thing to get done. Quote
