Tacsew T1563 (Juki Lu-563) Sewing Machine Head ($550)

[Uwe]

My Tacsew T1563 head is for sale for $550 to fellow leatherworkers.

The Tacsew T1563 is a very well done copy of the Juki LU-563. For specs, manuals, and parts lists, you can refer to the Juki LU-563 documentation.

I've spent a great deal of time with this machine, cleaning, adjusting, and replacing worn/broken/missing parts. I made a video of how I replaced the thread tension release guide, which gives you a good idea of what the insides of the head looks like:

You can see this machine making stitches in my thumb control video (that motor setup is NOT for sale, sorry!):

It is adjusted to perfection and makes perfectly matching forward and reverse stitches at a max of 7mm stitch length.

The machine is ready to be shipped in the custom shipping crate I've built for it. The whole box weighs in at a hefty 97 lbs.

Shipping will run between $70-100, depending on where in the continental U.S. you live.

If you're in the Detroit area, I'll be happy to set this machine up in a table and a nice motor for an extra $250, but shipping a complete setup is not something I'm interested in.

I'm set up to accept credit cards through my photography business. I can also send you a Paypal invoice if you prefer.

Here are some detailed pictures:

I must say good, no, great work Uwe. Impressive.

This is a steal given the amount of work you have done both to the machine and in the creation of the beautiful crate.

Very nice listing.

Thank you.
