Members MariMari Posted February 18, 2021 Author Members Report Posted February 18, 2021 I have not had any time to go about it. But I'm back in business now. Hope these pics are better, I had to move the machine for that ...beast is heavy... Tomorrow I will get another machine ( Singer 34K11) to help me out till I get this one moving. But perhaps I need 2 anyway and will keep Singer as well. So far I only handstitched leather but now that I have horses I need to make some gear. And I'm afraid my poor fingers will not take handsewing pressure. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 18, 2021 Members Report Posted February 18, 2021 34K11 is a heavy one among the 34K class machines - lets hope it has the shuttle and bobbin cause they are obsolete (not the same as for 34K5 and the like). The machine is using 328 needles.

Members dikman Posted February 18, 2021 Members Report Posted February 18, 2021 That is quite an impressive piece of mechnical wizardry! That original needle looks like it was designed to sew several layers of plywood!!! Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)
