Members shoepatcher Posted February 22, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 22, 2015 C, Pfaff never made their own shoepatcher. The first contracted with Adler to buy some of their machines and stands hence the 230-1 model. Later, they contract with Claes and marketed the machine under the Metro Spezial name calling it a 8345, 8346 and even a 9346 model. It's subclasses were the 310. #20 and #30. I would love to have that Pfaff 230-1 machine. it is a 30-1 in everyway but the name. glenn C, I almost forgot. I have a few of the binders for the 30 class Adler. Singer also made them. I will try to get pictures of them for you. The one on Ebay in Germany is very reasonably price at $55.00Euros. glenn Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 22, 2015 Members Report Posted February 22, 2015 Pay me for gas + expenses and I will pick it up for you - quite a trip all across Germany. I will let others have the binder as I´m not a collector and have no use for it. I guess it will go higher than 55€ Did you know of Martin Decker patchers? Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 22, 2015 Members Report Posted February 22, 2015 Have you seen this website? They also have your "Steroids" patcher as it seems: http://schiffmann-orthopaedie.de/fussorthopaedie-beckingen-merzig-lebach/antike-schuhmacher-naehmaschinen/ Quote

Members Darren Brosowski Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 Working on this with a friend who has a cylindrical grinder. We may be able to manufacture one to fit from a 29k bobbin but they are going to cost about $US100 each so I am not sure if it is worth the effort. C.S. Jones [this one is missing the shuttle and a Singer 29 is too big to fit..any ideas what shuttle might be suitable ?] Quote
Members Darren Brosowski Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 I was lucky enough to spend three days with Steve - Singermania - last week and I am still drooling over his machines. It was a business trip as I import 441's and other heavy machines from China but I wanted to spend more time playing with his 100yo machines than I did with the new ones. 16 Pearson No6's in one place is something most will never see.

Members Constabulary Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 Glenn, I have another one for your list MUNDLOS - but once again an ADLER made machine. http://www.ebay.de/itm/antike-Schuhmacher-Naehmaschine-der-Marke-Mundlos-/181673388298?ssPageName=ADME:SS:SS:DE:3160 Quote
Members Darren Brosowski Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 I think I have several Mundloss machines but they are a unique design domestic. That one looks like a straight out 29k.

Members Constabulary Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 I think I have several Mundloss machines but they are a unique design domestic. That one looks like a straight out 29k. Nope - straight Adler 30-1 Quote
Members Darren Brosowski Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 I have never put the 29 and 30 side by side but from other experience I suspect that Adler bought production licenses from Singer for various machines and then developed their own versions. Nope - straight Adler 30-1 Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 23, 2015 Members Report Posted February 23, 2015 Of course not (not exactly sure what you mean) but the one I have linked is obviously an Adler 30-1 but MUNDLOS labeled and not a Singer 29K. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 24, 2015 Members Report Posted February 24, 2015 Glenn - one more for your list: CHRISTIAN MANSFELD, Leipzig http://www.ebay.de/itm//281585878512 Thats a really really nice one, isn´t it? Actually a Duerkopp 18 patcher, right? Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted February 25, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 25, 2015 C, That looks an awful lot like a 18 class Durkopp. Must have been a lot of companies in Germany making shoe patcher or a lot of private labeling!!! Beautiful machine!! glenn Quote
Hockeymender Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Glenn - one more for your list: CHRISTIAN MANSFELD, Leipzig http://www.ebay.de/itm//281585878512 Thats a really really nice one, isn´t it? Actually a Duerkopp 18 patcher, right? Now that's a real beauty!! Wonder how old?? Quote
Members Constabulary Posted March 14, 2015 Members Report Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) Glen, I have found another patcher brand GOERICKE, Bielefeled (once again a CO. from Bielefeld) also sold a Duerkopp type patcher The writing says "GOERICKES ORIGINAL SCHUHMACHER MASCHINE" GOERICKE was known for bicycles and motorcycles (at least in Germany) Edited March 14, 2015 by Constabulary Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted March 14, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 14, 2015 C,That looks like a Durkopp. I wonder if Durkopp dis a bunch of private labeling for other companies. If so, we know it was before 1933 because that is when Hitler seized the Durkopp company and turned it into a bayonet factory. What I would give to be in Germany for 6 months and purchase shoe patchers! There are a lot there and lots of odd ones for sale. glenn Quote
Members Constabulary Posted April 6, 2015 Members Report Posted April 6, 2015 And the list goes on Here we have a S. LEVY, BERLIN patcher http://www.ebay.de/itm/131478639627?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&fromMakeTrack=true Pictures stolen from Ebay Quote
Members Constabulary Posted June 26, 2015 Members Report Posted June 26, 2015 And the list goes on... A Husqvarna patcher, a Patent Elastic labeled for Husqvarna in Sweden - very cool, never seen before. I wonder what journey this machine made as it it for sale in Germany again. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Alte-Husqvarna-Nahmaschine-/271912508822 Some pics for the records. Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted June 26, 2015 Author Members Report Posted June 26, 2015 C, Thanks for another pic of another brand of shoepatcher. Obviously, this was a Patent Elastic machine and stand with the pedal cast for Husquvarna. Thanks. glenn Quote
Members Constabulary Posted September 19, 2015 Members Report Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Some pictures of Pfaff 230-1 patchers - Clearly a 30-1 but Pfaff labeled This one is an earlier model And Pfaff even sold CLAES Patchers Edited September 19, 2015 by Constabulary Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted September 21, 2015 Author Members Report Posted September 21, 2015 C, That is a Claes. Notice it resembles a Adler in a a lot of places but the take up lever shows it to be a Claes. Thanks C! Keep them pics coming!!! glenn Quote
Members Constabulary Posted September 22, 2015 Members Report Posted September 22, 2015 will do - when ever I see an interesting or strange patcher on Ebay or elsewhere. Quote

Evo160K Posted October 5, 2015 Report Posted October 5, 2015 Constabulary, The line below from the eBay listing doesn't seem to translate clearly with Google Translate. Is it saying the item pictured is being offered for sale or one that looks like it? Thanks a lot. Verkaufe wie im Bild eine alte dekorative Schuster oder Sattlernähmaschine. Quote
