Matt S Report post Posted July 7, 2019 Old-school German precision engineered sewing machine. Good condition mechanically but a little cosmetically challenged. Has reverse. It's a needle-and-drop feed machine (not a walking foot). Feeds very positively, especially on flat pieces. There's a small broken off casting on the top, I think for an auxiliary presser spring, but I don't think its absence has ever been an issue. I'm reluctant to sell as it's so well made and reliable but it duplicates or triplicates capabilities I have with other, more modern machines and I need the space. Pictures show 2x4mm thicknesses of English bridle sewn with TKT20 nylon thread, which is about the maximum I'd want to put through it with any regularity. Needles and bobbins readily available (10ish bobbins and a few packets of GB needles included in sale). Feet are a little more challenging to find but they are available. 1x roller foot supplied with the machine. Also a couple of spring-guide feet that will work with some minor modification that I never got around to. This machine would be ideal for things like wallets, dress/smart belts, bags that can be made on the flat etc. Not for horse tack, duty/cowboy gear or anything of that sort. Also works well on heavy fabric -- denim, canvas etc. Selling head-only, but I have the original table top which I'll include. (Again sound but could do with a tart-up.) Also have somewhere the bobbin winder, thread stand, pedal, knee lifter etc. but they have definitely seen better days and you'd probably be better off buying new ones from College Sewing (about £50 the lot). Also got some similar-vintage K-legs I could be persuaded to part with, but they're currently earmarked for a project. I'm asking £300 or best offer. Collection from Harrow HA1 preferred. Far superior, in my opinion, to the medium-quality Chinese offerings you'll pay 4 figures for at a lot of dealers today. If you want I can set this up on the table, cleaned up, with thread stand, bobbin winder etc. and a new servo motor, ready to go, for £600 all-in. Cash or bank transfer preferred. descripts.txt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
