Hockeymender Report post Posted March 7, 2015 Direct copy of the Adler 69-373 right down to the color. Can't speak for the quality of the "Omac" brand, but the genuine Adler 69 is a great machine having used one for many years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted March 7, 2015 Actually, it is a genuine Adler 69 that they took and altered the cylinder arm. A few Italian companies have done that with various Adler models. I saw a Adler 768 double needle post machine outfitted with very large hooks and bobbins and could handle very heavy thread some years ago that Bill's Swing had ordered for a Furniture maker customer in the late 90's in NC. it was done by an Italian company that I cannot remember the name of at this moment. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
