IRONWALLSLeather Sewing Machine, Heavy Duty Metal Manual Hand Cobbler Shoe Stitching Repair Mending Machine with Dual Cotton Nylon Line Canvas for Bags Tents Clothes Quilts, Coats, Trousers

Arrived double boxed and in styrofoam as seen in online videos. Not a lot of grease to remove but definitely needs a good wiping down. The aluminum frame is painted well and the chrome plating is decent. No rust as far as I can see. The handwheel is grooved which is nice if one wants to motorize it one day. The machine is pre-threaded with some fishing line-like thread and it appears to sew right out of the box. It is not a swiss-made precision tool by any means but one cannot really expect that from a sewing machine that has to be manufactured, asssembled, and tested for maybe $30 to be retailed for about $120. It is in significantly better condition than I expected and not as rough as I have seen some in videos on youtube. EDIT: Plenty of rust under the bobbin cover but not a technical problem. Makes swiveling the cover hard though. Will remove cover, sand, oil, and replace. FURTHER EDIT: After spending some time smoothing out the bobbin case, bobbin shuttle, and bobbin with needle files and 400 grit sandpaper, getting some bonded nylon upholstery thread instead of the supplied stuff (which is useless IMHO), after dropping the needle bar by about 2mm it now works well, after messing aound with the tension of top and bobbin, and after oiling every metal to metal moving part, it now works! Definitely needs work before it sews but the dollar/performance ratio is awesome.

assez complexe a regler

Tolle rustikale Maschine.Macht alle notwendigen Näharbeiten bei richtiger Einstellung ,richtiger Nadel und entsprechendem Garn einwandfrei.

This is one messed up machine , had to return for another one and it’s just as junkie as the first.

Bel outil mais ne coud pas.Elle s'est fait brasser durant le transport et des morceaux étaient cassés;on l'a retournée.
