Looks like a serger but guess it could be a coverlock machine.

I just noticed at bottom right of photo a case top it looks like. Can anyone make out what it says on it? Wonder if it the case top for this machine?


it looks like "Huskvarna". i have a viking and the case and color logo look like that. do you own this machine, or are thinking of buying it?

it will fun to find out just what it is. keep us posted.

i just googled embroidery machines ONLY and sergers and none of them looked like that on the side, regardless of who made them.

you seem to have a mystery machine. :lol:

i just zoomed in on the case, and maybe it doesn't say huskqvarna. the lettering seems too long. it still doesn't look like anything. it looks mostly like a serger, but where do the thread cones go?

where did you see this?

I vote for older serger. I don't think an embriodery machine would have a cutter on it.

serger

My old babylock serger extends out the back like that....and the front bottom side looks exactly like that...it's a door that opens for threading the 4 spools through all the spots in the machine.

I vote for an old serger (and mine is over 15 years old I think)

It sure looks like a serger to me! An older model, but I bet it is a dandy! My neighbor has several and she uses them all the time. A real workhorse! At least that is my opinion!

It's definitely a serger, but I don't see the spindles that hold the threads in the back. Mine looks very similar. I got mine at least 20 years ago - it's a Toyota, believe it or not, and I still use it when I'm working on clothes and such.
