Pintodeluxe Report post Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) So far I've been unable to identify this double needle industrial machine. It says model 208 on the front. The only other markings are an apparent serial # C-680227. It's a needle feed machine, and is brown in color. There is a selector clutch on the left of the head to choose one needle vs. two. Some construction details look similar to older Adler machines. Maybe a clone of another machine? Any thoughts? I'm mostly looking for information regarding what needle class it takes, and to confirm the thread path. Thanks!

Pintodeluxe Report post Posted August 13, 2018 The reverse lever is small, and the stitch length adjustment knob is quite low. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pintodeluxe Report post Posted August 13, 2018 Yeah, I took it on trade. I'm not planning on keeping it, I'm just trying to identify the make. Underside of slide plates say Simanco, but they could be aftermarket too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrmCa Report post Posted August 14, 2018 It does look Singer'ish to me, especially the cover of the bulge on the casting and the flywheel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMSS Report post Posted April 2, 2021 Look at Nakajima. I have a single needle feed that looks exactly as pic'd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
