shoepatcher Report post Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Correct. 8345 Claes is same as 9345 Metro Spezial which Claes made for Pfaff. I have parts list and operations manual for the 8345 and the 9345 I believe. That cast iron stand it sits on was built by Claes I believe. Great set up. Has a speed reducer in the stand. Great machine. Generic bobbins are $8.50 US. The largest leather now made is a #170. If I have them, $8.50/pack of 10. Let me know. Shipping to Norway from US will not be cheap. I have parts list and operations manuals for 8345/9345. glenn Edited May 15, 2022 by shoepatcher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanMachine Report post Posted May 16, 2022 Great. How can I order ? Do you have a company ? The machine has a a very heavy stand unlike what I have from before with the Adler and Singer machines.I think I will change to a Servo or a DC motor with gear (as I normally do with the industrial machines), but it is a amazing "super quiet" clutch motor so I will give it a chance...One of the pictures shows the difference between an Adler 30-1 bobbin and a 30 size Claes 9345 bobbin.

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. Jan I'm also interested in buying your bobbins. Could use a handful. I own and use a Claes 30A sn 19255 on a regular basis. Great machine!
