Weaver Cub Manual Sewing Machine

[jhrleather]

In my previous post I forgot to mention that if anyone is having trouble with or needing to replace the wire holding the thread on the Weaver cub just replace it with piano wire of the proper gauge.   I really like the Cub and plan to get one when the budget allows.

I would like to post photos of the machine with modifications  and shoulder holsters but don't know how. Can someone help.

I bought one last week.  It delivered today.  I doubt I'll get to use it much, as work is really kicking in at the moment.

I had a BOSS a while back, but the tension drove me insane, so I sold it.  Fingers crossed, this CUB looks like it will work out.

I know an old thread, but wanted to see if anyone ended up motorized one and if so how’d it work out.

14chow,

I hadn't seen this thread before but maybe you could help me understand.  According to the prices I see, the Cub is only $500 less than the CB3200(from Cowboy Bob).  I know shipping would be higher but you get a reverse, table and a servo motor.  That's worth the extra $500 to me.  I know sometimes that extra $500 is just too hard to come by.  What do you think?

Thanks,

Jim

The difference all in was around $900 when I got it. Manual is fine for holsters and the like but gets old fast doing a belt.
