Members Constabulary Posted February 7, 2021 Members Report Posted February 7, 2021 You have a lot of known brands like Consew, JUKI, Mitsubishi, Seiko, older Dürkopp (not Dürkopp-Adler) and gazillions of from China made brands which are based on Singer machines - of course not all their machines but still a lot. Not all are 1:1 copies but by looking closer at their details (parts) you will notice their roots.

Members Sloop Posted February 16, 2021 Author Members Report Posted February 16, 2021 It turns out the guy with the Adler 67-22L advertising business closure; the business was supposed to close April 6, 2019! He just keeps reposting. I saw an ad for a Pfaff 545 with a servo motor for $100, someone had already responded. Then someone gave me a heads-up for a Singer 111w155 with table etc., also for $100. but also it went immediately. I googled Necchi industrial machines, and saw ones like my little BU Mira being sold as industrial, some even mounted in industrial tables with undermount motors, but I see they have true industrial models that look like they have the 11+" work table. They seem rare in the US. Are they as sweet as the BU Mira? I have a tool fetish. I would imagine parts would be hard to come by. Quote
