WOW - thats a hell of a deal! I´m sure he is not making much money here! Congratulations!!! Thanks! It was a bargain and I'm overly excited! I'm very lucky because his shop is very close to my house so he was willing to deliver it. Quote
Members dikman Posted August 31, 2017 Members Report Posted August 31, 2017 Sounds like a good deal, I'd say you've done well. They are a nice solid machine. I ended up replacing the handwheel on mine with an 8" pulley, might look funny but it can go slow with lots of torque. Now you just have to buy lots of needles and lots of thread . Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)

Finally the fun begins. I have to learn a lot of things and ask again a lot of questions. Thanks again for your help! Quote
