The appropriate sub-forum is: Marketplace > Items For Sale > Machinery > Sewing and Stitching > Used Hi I have photos and can generate a short write up about the Leather Shop I visited that is closing down and selling off equipment. I bought some things and there is plenty left. Some 15 or so Landis 16s and a few union lock stitchers as well as a Landis 1. Landis 3 has sold. Many splitters, slitters, clickers, roll dies and hand tools. Where would suggest I post this topic. At only 1.46mb it may take me a while to up load a few images.

Silverd Ideally, the owner of the storage unit, or store that is selling the machines should place an ad for the equipment, along with photos, prices and location. In your case, you are one of their customers who wants to share the bargains with LWN members. The photos and estimated or asking prices and exact location should go into a new topic you start under the Marketplace forum I linked to previously. Just click on the bold underlined words to go to that section of LWN. Start a new topic. Show the phone number of the owner of the equipment unless you are hired to act as his/her agent. You will need to use a photo editor to reduce the dimensions, thus file sizes of your photos. I recommend trying to change your camera's resolution to the lowest file size possible. When I shot with a Canon digital camera the best size for web pages was 800 x 600 pixels. My smart phone doesn't go that small, so I use FastStone Photo Resizer to make my photos more web page friendly. It doesn't take too much work to get a 3 Mb camera .jpg down to 300 Kb or less.

Silverd Report post Posted October 6, 2018 I understand. I'm not working for him but his story is interesting and there might be members interested in the remaining equipment he has. Id say short to med run production equipment. Several motorized landis 30 splitters, big slitters, sanders, presses, clickers, many many clicker dies for holsters etc for police use which were his primary customer. No prices listed but he is pretty fair minded. Don't know if he will ship but I suspect he would. I'll call him and ask. On another note. I'm considering buying one of his landis 16 machines. I sewed on it and it appears to be in good working order, tight needle bar and all included winder with extra bobins. I'm making equine tack. What are your thoughts. Is this a machine that will be an asset or a pain in the asset? Silverd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
