[NO, I am NOY buying this, this machine price is WAY out of my range)
Shared with me by Mike at Wolfegangs
This Chainstitch machine was made in Germany (estimated to be around 1890, but no documentation)
There are only 4 known to exist still, so I got the OK to share.

and YES, that IS a spool of thread hidden there
[ATTACH=CONFIG]528325[/ATTACH]
If I am lucky, I may get a short Video of it operating to share

Very Nice
The other machine designed is that of a clown and is even more rare. My understanding is that there were as few as 2 made.
