the cool folks over at Needlebar have solved part of the mystery. The shuttle text should read..."DRGM 74486".

This means " Deutsches Reich Gebrauch Muster " which was introduced in 1891 and is an official registered design or function. (i.e it is the German equivalent of Pat Pend...)

First Stitches, 4 layers of light cloth.

Right to left Largest setting, smallest setting (wow!!) medium setting.

I still need to remove and clean the tension unit, but for a first test it is cool!

ok, so I wondered about leather...

this is 4-6oz Bison
[ATTACH=CONFIG]417651[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]417652[/ATTACH]

and then my little meanie (DD) says, can it do two layers?
[ATTACH=CONFIG]417653[/ATTACH]

No Problem... Just wow.
It was rough getting started on the two layers but once in motion, zipped right along..
