Scored another SEWMOR
 
1 Attachment(s)
It seems that SEWMORs have become popular. I've been outbid on the last two or three I've bid on. Tonight I got stubborn and snagged another one.
This one looks to be either a 127 or 128 copy. The GW pics don't give me enough to tell for sure.

This is the first Japanese made shuttle machine I've won.

I'll post more pics when the machine arrives.

I have had 2 of the Japanese long bobbin machines. They are very nice. Does yours have a big lever under the bobbin winder. I can't remember if it is for stitch length or reverse...

Congrats Joe! I saw that one and wondered if you had seen it. Nice to know you got it and it's going to a good home.
I cant wait to see more.

Miriam,
From the one pic that shows that area, and not very clearly, it looks like it has the old style round knob for stitch length adjustment. No reverse.

I'll post some clearer pics of that when I get the machine.

Rodney,

I'm thrilled I was able to win it. Prices are going up up up faster than I can afford to pay them. A clear sign of supply and demand. The supply is finite, and the demand is increasing.
I still don't have a SEWMOR ZZ machine. Been outbid on every one of those I've bid on. I keep trying.

It really does look nice. Case too.
I'm hoping it has a bobbin in the shuttle, and that it will use the Singer type. That way I can really use it rather than just look at it.
