anvlts Report post Posted August 23, 2018 Hello there, a friend of mine offered this machine to me. It's old, but still in a relatively good condition. Wondering if other folks use this machine for leatherworking. Thanks, Marko Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kgg Report post Posted August 23, 2018 It all depends on what you plan to sew with it but the Adler 541 is a post bed machine that I think would be more for glove making, upholstery weight sewing, installing patches on coats or other hard to reach areas. I have seen a post bed turned into a flat bed with a home made table top to have more versatilely. kgg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anvlts Report post Posted August 23, 2018 I am actually looking for a post bed sewing machine, but with a wheel foot, like Pfaff 491. Converting regular foot on Adler 541 into a wheel foot might not be possible, due to the position of the feeding dog. Trying to figure out if I might have use for Adler 541,, or if I should sell it and get Pfaff 491. Thanks, Marko Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
