Lara,

Thanks for the offer, but at the moment the funds for such a purpose are not available.

My first impression was "Is this a joke?" It really looked like someone took the machine apart and then didn't know where all the parts went to put it back together. Ha Ha

It's what I thought, too. Steampunk or what ever

Wow...That is some machine...not sure what the heck it is....

I went and showed my DH and he wants to go look at it. I am thinking WHY! He thinks it does leather.

The Terminator and Borg comments made by Monroe and Joe are hilarious and so true! As soon as I saw the picture Lara, I thought the machine should be named Locutus! Might be worth buying just for that....sell it to a Trekky. LOL

I to thought it was a buttonhole machine,(I used one for 6 years) but I could not see the cutter anywhere.As these machines will make a buttonhole and then a blade will come down with GREAT force and cut the hole open. Also not thinking this is a leather machine either, because it would need to feed right to left or left to right not front to back to be of any use to any industry, nor does it look like a industrial bander either.This has got me wondering now, I will call and find out.

Love it! Especially the name Locutus. It really does look like it's been assimilated.

I found a manual for this machine. It's a buttonholer alright.

Singer 71-101 and 71-107 High Speed Gear Driven Feed Sewing Machines are designed for making straight buttonholes in cotton, linen, rayon and silk fabrics, knit goods, etc. These machines have a positive, gear driven, intermittent feed which controls the movement of the work clamp so that the stitches are uniformly spaced around the buttonhole under all conditions.
