Members Constabulary Posted January 7, 2019 Members Report Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) I decided to sell my fully restored DVSG / BUSMC #6 HM. It is the head incl. bobbin winder + some some accessories - see below pictures for details. This is the later model with stitch length adjuster near the driving cam !!! I have restored it by my self and I striped the machine down to the core. I have touched very single screw! I thoroughly cleaned all parts and the casting incl. cast iron parts have ben cleaned in an electrolysis bath. Then I repainted everything in nice green / olive drab shade. Some parts have been replaced with New Old Stock parts I found in Great Britain. Machine has the wax pot for the top tread and comes with the following accessories: Bobbin winder, 1 shuttle, 2 bobbins, 2 presser feet (1 double toe on machine, 1 left toe extra) parts tin, approx 15 needles, some spare screws, oiler holder, bracket for flat bed attachment (the curved piece) some tools and a few other bits - I can also include an edge guide which it´s not OEM but I think you can make it work for this machine - I never installed it. See pictures. Oh - and there is a sharpening stone is for deburring the needle tips - just for the case. The brown thread on the bobbin winder is not included but I include some heavy polyester thread of approx size 207. The squared piece in the upper left side (last picture) are for inside the wax pot AFAIK. Bobbin winder wax pot is included too - of course. I never have used either wax pot so they are clean. I put an extra tension unit on top of the bobbin winder because I had a thread stand for industrial thread cones and figured winding the bobbing works much better with the tension unit I also have 2 PDF manuals - one original scanned and one digitally reworked. Treadle stand is NOT included. I take Paypal. I can ship to USA,Canada and the whole European Union incl. Great Britain. USA & Canada: Price Including UPS shipping in a custom build cerate: $1750 / 1500€ EU & Great Britain: Price Including UPS shipping or freight forwarder in a custom build cerate or on a palette: 1350€ Above Price expire on Jan. 31 2019 because right now I have a UPS shipping voucher which expires at that date. So shipping has to happen before that date. Later shipping will cost more. If interested or you want to see more detailed pictures / need more information send me a PM or ask here. I will post a YouTube video later.

bikermutt07 Posted January 8, 2019 Report Posted January 8, 2019 You sir, have an addiction. Beautiful job. Good luck on the sale. I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members chrisash Posted January 8, 2019 Members Report Posted January 8, 2019 Now that's what i call a excellent rebuild, as good if not better than new, well done you must be sorry to be parting with it Mi omputer is ot ood at speeling , it's not me
Members Constabulary Posted January 8, 2019 Author Members Report Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Thank you I honestly hate to sell it, this was the best rebuilt I ever did - but - I have to be honest to my self, I will most likely never have enough work for this machine so the machine "rests" in the garage and is collection dust - that's not what it is meant for. I think since the day I finished the machine I have not sewn more than maybe 5 feet or so - sad but true. I barely sew heavy leather. I mainly sew webbing and canvas so it is like "pearls for the pigs". So it will serve a serious leather worker, saddle or harness maker better than me. The stand can be sold separately but It cannot be shipped over the pond to the US or Canada - I´m sorry! Due to size and weight the stand can only be shipped inside the EU by freight forwarder or we talk about personal delivery (depends on location) or pick up. So if someone inside the EU is interested in the stand drop me a note. It has an attached work plate and has the original heavy cast iron motor mount.

bikermutt07 Posted January 8, 2019 Report Posted January 8, 2019 I hope it can sell in the EU so it can all stay original. I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather.

Members Sceaden Posted January 8, 2019 Members Report Posted January 8, 2019 A stunning machine! Beautiful work, sadly I can't justify a sewing machine right now but I couldn't help but comment.
Members shoepatcher Posted January 9, 2019 Members Report Posted January 9, 2019 Folker, That looks just fabulous. You did on hell of a job on that. Fun to rebuild? glenn
Members plinkercases Posted January 9, 2019 Members Report Posted January 9, 2019 Well that is stunning.... trouble is I have a head but no treadle stand or winder.... I assume the cost to US and Canada is in USD?... had to ask.....
