This works with one thread only and a looper instead of a bobbin, in this case 2 threads and 2 loopers. The machine that comes to mind for this heavy duty work would be a Puritain stitcher. You have probably heard of them??? Super cool video btw. The stitching on the original caseooked a lot like what the Puritain is laying down, however much of the stitching was single row...and the two runs of double row stitching was not very perfectly parallel. Did they make a single row looper do you know? Silverd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great job on the case by the way...looks amazing I'd say they used something on the order of this machine to produce these trunks back in the day. I'm looking for a high post (17") to enable the same but with lock stitch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
