Members catskin Posted May 11, 2022 Members Report Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) I just bought out an older mans supply of industrial needles. He had been fixing industrial machines for about 60 years and said he never had a machine come in that he didn't have a needle for. I stopped counting at 5000 and only had a good start. If someone can give me all the possible numbers ( needle system ) I will look I might have them. Quite a few are round point so the right ones for clothe. I have as many as 2200 of some sizes. A lot are older new stock some likely even over 40 years old. There are some 97x4 s which I believe may not be made anymore. I am in Saskatchewan Canada I am willing to send them by mail.

Being that there are thousands and I just bought this bunch a week ago it might take a day or 2 to check all . I will let you know what I find. Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted May 13, 2022 Members Report Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) JanMachine. You looking for leather point or round point.? I have both. The Metro Spezial you got was made by Claes for Pfaff. It is their patcher. Claes in everything but name. I also have generic #30 bobbins that a friend of mine made years ago on a CNC mill. Better than originals and cheaper. On 5/11/2022 at 11:25 AM, catskin said: glenn Edited May 13, 2022 by shoepatcher Quote

I will check for others. Quote

I don't know anything about the Claes Machine, but it looks great and the 3-phase motor works well and the stitches are long and fine. I´m also interested in a couple of #30 bobbins.
