Cornely K and Wilcox & Gibbs

[jimi]

Hi There, I Know this is not a Leather sewing machine, but was wondering if anyone has a Cornely K user manual or parts manual?? I would like to see how the cording parts are used/fitted on this machine, but i am finding it hard to find info. I have a Model A parts list and a Consew manual but was interested in seeing the cornely K if it exists??? and while i am at it, if anyone has a W&G S 200 straw hat sewing machine manual?? I can see the normal hidden silent stitch one but nothing on the S 200??

@jimi Even though this is not a leather machine, I'm still moving it to leather sewing machines for 2 reasons.

1. All posts in Help Wanted require moderator approval before they can be seen by other members
2. More sewing machine people will see it here than in help wanted so your chances of getting some good information and help will be much improved.

Looks like an interesting machine.  I remember seeing pennants when I was a youngster with this type of chain stitching.  You might be able to contact some of the pennants and emblems manufacturers that might have people with experience using these machines.  Good luck!

Thanks Tom, I will check that out what you said about the pennants, and thanks for moving it. It is not my sort of machine, but it was dirt cheap so i could not bear seeing it go to the heap!!.

not my cup of tea but I would have bough them too. There is a sewing machine museum in the Netherlands and the guy (afaik) has this type of machines too I think it is this guy here but I´m not sure:

Same question re: W&G Straw hat machines   ..was meaning to ask but didn't want to clutter forum with non leather machines.... 

Not my interest as many know..this was thrown in with a sale -free - broken ...but just a bent needle bar...just need parts/schematic and threading diagram (other's have different tension loop set up).

HoHo.. nice one Gordon, not much info on these? seems a little different? Arch on the back bar and one piece material guide? Tension guides and front thread guide?? I can show you a couple of pictures of it threaded if that will help you?? Mine came incomplete, it needs the front tension spring,block and both screws..i Have them located for a fiver.. just need the screws. PM me with your email and i can send you a pdf of the parts list Gordon.
