Contributing Member Tim Schroeder Posted November 21, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted November 21, 2016 Hello, I finally got my Landis 12 running. I bought it last Christmas. Paid $600 from an auction in San Angelo Tx. I changed the needle and awl and oiled it a little bit. She seems to dance like your suppose to, me not so well. Pretty much massacred the first one, but only had one little bobble in the second one. This machine doesn't have an adjustable guide yet but will be getting one for Christmas. The presser foot is in pretty rough shape and is trying to push the work away from the guide. Hopefully I will get a new one for Christmas too. The pictures are a pair of Golf shoes I'm making for myself. Thanks Tim Quote
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted November 21, 2016 Moderator Report Posted November 21, 2016 Not bad to my eyes. I've sewn on a couple of soles with my Cowboy CB4500 (using the inline foot set from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines) and it didn't look any better than what your Landis did. Maybe you can rig up a temporary flat bottom plate and trim the high side of the bottom of the foot to eliminate the unwanted push.
