T Moore Medicine Hat Saddlery Report post Posted May 22, 2017 I'm looking to restore a Landis #1 stitcher and was hoping someone had some pictures to give me an idea of paint or stencil ideas for the machine in general and the hand wheel in particular. The Landis #1 was the first stitcher I used 35 years ago and I'm looking to restore one completely and with a nicer paint job. Any ideas would sure be appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Sioux Saddlery Report post Posted May 22, 2017 It was the first machine I sewed on also, and used exclusively for the first 15 years I was in business. I love those old machines! I have three of them, but none have much paint left on them. Somewhere, I'm pretty sure it was on this forum, I can remember seeing a picture of a REALLY nice original #1. Have you tried a search?
